NY-23 2009: Scozzafava hits trail with GOP women [RINO Susan Collins]
The Hill, Washington, DC ^ | 2009-10-24 | Jordan Fabian

Assemblywoman Dede Scozzafava (R-N.Y.) brought two female GOP lawmakers with her on the campaign trail today after a week in which several national Republicans endorsed Conservative Party challenger Doug Hoffman.

Sen. Susan Collins (R-Maine) and Rep. Ginny Brown-Waite (R-Fla.) joined Scozzafava today at a campaign event. Ex-Gov. Sarah Palin (R-Alaska), arguably the Republican Party's most visible woman, endorsed Hoffman this week. Most conservatives have shied away from Scozzafava or endorsed Hoffman, arguing that she holds too many liberal positions.

Meanwhile, back at the ranch, noted RINOs like McCain and his lap dog Lindsay Graham are being awfully quiet.

Yeah, taking Collins with her will really get her some vote! (it’s a good thing she didn’t get Snowe too!)

If you are trying to demonstrate your RINO credentials, I can imagine you can find someone better than Collins. Or perhaps McCain and Schwartzenegger weren’t returning phone calls.

I was extremely disappointed that my Congresswoman, Ginny Brown-Waite was on this appearance as well. I apologize to any upstate New Yorkers for this. I will be doing everything I can to retire Ginny in 2010.

Has everyone seen this: “The Most Important Number in Politics Today.”

Doug Hoffman is the Conservative alternative in this race (or Hoffman by PayPal).

Markos Moulitsas, founder of The Daily Kos has endorsed Scozzafava. Dede Scozzafava has also been endorsed by NYSUT, the largest labor union in New York, and an affiliate of the National Education Association.

Scozzafava also holds these positions:

Scozzafava has also run in past elections on the Working Families Party (a progressive party associated with ACORN) line on the ballot.

This lady isn’t a RINO, she is a big “R” libeRal democRat. Mark Steyn has coined the term DIABLO for her and others like her. Democrat In All But Label Only.

There are also at least 17 unprincipled DIABLO enablers in the house who have donated funds or otherwise supported to this LibeRal democRat's DIABLO’s campaign. They include Boehner, Cantor, Sessions, Hensarling, Brown-Waite and McCotter. I don’t have a full list, but I will be looking for it. These unprincipled enablers should be targeted for elimination in the primaries next year.

Also, perhaps those of us who donated to the RNC or RCCC should ask for our money back so we can support the conservative candidates of our choice.

More threads ...
From the desk of
cc2k:
Candidates I support: Doug Hoffman for Congress, NY 23rd (PayPal), David Harmer for Congress, CA 10th.

Please, spread the word about these important special elections on November 3, 209: New York’s 23rd congressional district and California’s 10th congressional district.

I won’t have an opinion on this until that stalwart Republican, Meagan McCain, tells what a real Republican would do.

Hope Sarah hold a rally for Hoffman. That should bring plenty of attention to Hoffman and his conservative ideals.

If Hoffman can’t win..I hope a Democrat wins. Republicans need to be taught a lesson about “Diablo”s (TM steyn).

All three women should be drummed out of the GOP. The party must be purified.

If it wasn’t for McDemocrat’s term being up, he’d be right there in NY. He sent his Liberal Surrogate, Collins, instead. McDemocrat, Snowe Job, Grahamnesty, and Suzie RINO must be taken out at the voting booth.

There was a time that I probably would’ve have argued with that comment...not anymore.

RINOs run together. What we have here, in the 23rd, is the first live shot in a civil war. RINO’s out, Palin and Thompson in, and Steele run out of town on a rail.

Well, there’s a red flag if there ever was one.
