There are people that just pull the R lever instinctively. These people can be educated and change their mind.
Certainly the strong conservatives in the district are already in Hoffman’s camp.
I doubt one can pull the support for Bill Owen much below that 35% level. In many ways he is to the right of Dede.
Since this is not a primary not sure why Democrats would say they were for Dede. It is not a question of getting the most liberal Republican on the ballot.
In any case this race is winnable.
I agree the Conservative Republicans have to continue to send the message to the RHINO Newt’s that we are not going in the direction that the RHINO’s have been leading our party. The Reagan Conservatives are returning it back to it’s origins. I don’t even like Dick Armey. I think he is one shy of being a RHINO....I wish RUSH, HANNITY and some of the credible talk show/conservative media would start pointing out what conservatives we should support and which ones are on the fence and need to be kicked over to the other side!
It's critical that Hoffman's supporters man every single last polling place from dawn to dusk to make sure that every Republican voter knows that their real choice is between two Democrats and a conservative.
