Telling the truth is now considered “a dirty trick” by the liberal media.

How is it a dirty trick if it honestly represents her position?

Telling the truth about a candidate is now a “dirty trick&rdquo. Amazing.

I think this ad is brilliant. It is going to be interesting to see who splits votes from whom next week.

And I just want to take a few seconds to make everyone aware of another race next Tuesday. This one is in California’s 10th congressional district. They have a fiscally conservative Republican running out there who has a chance to flip a seat from the Democrats. But he is getting no support at all from the RNC or the NRCC.


I support David Harmer for California’s 10th Congressional District (donations). He is a conservative candidate who has been a fellow at the Heritage Foundation and the Cato institute. He is committed to controlling spending, promoting economic growth, and free market solutions to todays problems.

I am also contacting the NRCC to ask why they are supporting Scozzafava in the race in upstate New York, and why they are ignoring David Harmer in this close race in California’s 10th district. Here are the numbers if anyone else wants to call:

Info from the NRCC "contact us" web page:
Contact the NRCC

Address:

320 First Street, SE
Washington, DC 20003

General Email:
website@nrcc.org

Phone:
Phone: 202-479-7000

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 (website for info).

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.

This headline is wrong: Hoffman isn’t running as a Republican.

Her response shows she is in fact the best choice for progressives as she is really one of them.

This article misses the fact it might also draw voters from Owens.

Note how they are coming to the defense of a lib! And I love the title “Republicans ...” . Leaves no doubt who the real Republican is in this race.

“A vote for Hoffman is a vote for Pelosi”
- Is that a “dirty trick” designed to get Hoffman voters to think twice about voting for him.

“On Tuesday, progressives have one candidate to vote for with pride: Dede Scozzafava”
- Is that a “dirty trick” designed to get Scozzafava voters to think twice about voting for her.

I say they are both good political tactics. It’s time for politicians to pull up their big boy pants and realize that hardball is how things are won.

A few things should stay out of the fight (like children), but if you can’t stand up to Dede Scozzafava or Doug Hoffman, you don’t deserve to be that close to the front line.

“praising Republican Dede Scozzafava as the “best choice for progressives.”

Grand Old Progressives? I just threw up a little in mouth.

Yup, I like it. 2 “Progressives” vs a Conservative in a Conservative district. One choice for the Conservatives and two choices for the “Progressives”/

If it doesnt backfire. Ask former NC Senator Liz Dole.

I like this a lot!

Part of me wonders if this is the project Glenn Beck has been trying to round up ‘money people’ for. It has Glenn written all over it.
