Doug Hoffman pledged to help Dede Scozzafava in an e-mail sent two days after the Republican Party passed over the Lake Placid accountant for the nomination.
The e-mail, sent from Mr. Hoffman's business account on July 24 and provided by the Scozzafava campaign, states in full: "Hi Dede, Congratulations and the best of luck in your candidacy. Let me know if there is anything I can do to help. Doug."

I know of another politician who also thought that universal health care was a good idea. But after he saw what Obamacare was all about, he fought against it. You can be SURE that’s what Hoffman would have done, and I think you know that.

Whatever their reason was for climbing on that failed bandwagon may have been, Hoffman's support for even less immigration law enforcement was a model of classic left wing euphemisms.
There is no question that our immigration policies are flawed. The answer, though, is not to put up a wall and stop all immigration. The answer is to create an easier path for immigrants to enter the United States and to work here while at the same time getting tough on illegal immigrants who commit crimes.
Hoffman just handed the seat to the Democrats again.
