Gingrich endorses Hoffman Posted: October 31st, 2009 01:04 PM ET

From CNN Political Editor Mark Preston

WASHINGTON (CNN)– Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, who came under fire from some conservatives for endorsing Dede Scozzafava in next week's special Congressional election in New York, is now backing Conservative Party candidate Doug Hoffman.

Gingrich made the announcement via Twitter shortly after the Republican Party nominee Scozzafava announced she was releasing supporters from their commitment to back her.

"Scozzafava dropping out leaves hoffman as only anti-tax anti-pelosi vote in ny 23 Every voter opposed to tax increases support doug hoffman," Gingrich wrote on Twitter. (Tweet shown as it appeared)

That’s a claim about a pledge.

Just one of the many reports and eyewitness accounts you couldn't rebut.

[JerseyDvl]

And Barack said he wouldnt run for Prez but here you are defending candidates like him from your DOJ office.

Biased, self-serving "eyewitnesses."

Have I got a copy [of the pledge]? Nope. Just numerous biased witnesses and second-hand sources to his pledging to support the nominee.

[JerseyDvl]

That you are a shill for Scuz and Hoffman wised up...yes total agreement.

[Mojave]

Biased, self-serving "eyewitnesses."

Sourceless question begging.

Yep. That liar is no conservative.

[Jet Jaguar]

LOL!

Hoffman wised up

Nope. He knew from the get-go.

James T. Ellis, the state Republican Party's regional vice chairman for nine of the 11 counties in the 23rd District, organized the four meetings where the candidates made their case for the nomination. Mr. Ellis said Mr. Hoffman would "certainly" have known Ms. Scozzafava's positions on social and fiscal issues after the four meetings together.

"He heard as much as I heard," the vice chairman said.

There also were dozens of accounts in newspapers, on television and on the Internet detailing Ms. Scozzafava's opinion on issues on which the two rivals disagree, such as abortion rights and gay marriage.

BTW, I don't support Dede or Doug - the two RINOs.

That leaves Owen, the Democrat.

I knew it all along.

You are a liberal Democrat.

[Lazamataz]

Good little liberal Democrat. You get your little liberal Democrat star.

[Lazamataz]

That you are a shill for Scuz and Hoffman wised up...yes total agreement.

No, Jersey: Mo'JIVE has specifically said he does not support ScuzzyFavor or Hoffman.

No mention of not supporting Owen, the Democrat.

We got us a punk-a&& liberal we are dealing with.

[Mojave]

That leaves Owen, the Democrat.

I suppose I could write in Paul Maroun if I was registered to vote in the district. But I'm not.

Neither is Doug Hoffman, interestingly enough.

[Lazamataz]

I suppose I could write in Paul Maroun if I was registered to vote in the district.

Riiiiiight.

(wink wink)

Good little liberal Democrat.

[Mojave]

(wink wink)

Discombobulated to learn that Hoffman isn't registered to vote in the 23rd?

[Lazamataz]

Not registered, and YET HE WILL WIN!

Chew on THAT, good little liberal Democrat MoJIVE!

LOL!

[Mojave]

Not registered, and YET HE WILL WIN!

Carpetbaggers often do. Your beloved Hillary, for example.
