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)

Well, my little liberal Democrat friend, it is a beautiful day here in Atlanta. I just stopped in to eat a wonderful steak my lovely girlfriend cooked up, so I’m going to go enjoy the rest of the day with her. You enjoy your loss! LOL!

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

EPIC FAIL

No big thing. One more liar in Congress is just another drop in the bucket.

and that would be different if the fezze or owens won the seat? you sure have devoted lotsa keystrokes to this issue. as someone who lives in VA, i followed this only very casually and was gratified to see the RINO expose her true horn, but you, on the other hand..you have been working your lil fingers to the bone on these threads. odd, you living in CA and all.

I haven't endorsed or pledged my support to Dede. Doug did.

to be honest, i don’t give a good dang about dede or doug. but you interest me. because when i see someone posting obsessively on one topic, especially when tending to favor the lib. it piques my interest. i tend to wonder what is up, especially when they don’t live in the state, they are posting obsessively about.

My posse of obsessive stalkers has helped keep me focused. It's been interesting seeing how easily people who make the pretense of conservatism will discard principle in the blink of an eye. The CINOs are really no better than RINOs. They're just more pretentious and dishonest with themselves.

no, it’s far more interesting to see someone devote so much time and energy to a race on the other side of the US from where they reside. odd, actually.

Not to me. But then, I’m not indifferent to principle.

It's all about the agenda, remember the Rooty Rooters.

“Sean! I finished mowing, want me to wash your car now? Clean your gutters? When can I be on your show again, Sean? I’m writing a new book ... real important stuff. Really. It will make a huge splash. Hey, how’s that talk about me running for Prez going, Sean? It’s sweeping the nation, I tell ya’, Sean. I may make an announcement any day, Sean. I’ll bet the suspense is just too much, huh Sean? OK, I’ll just hang around the studio and wait for you to bump a guest. Sean? Sean???”

Ronald Reagan took years to become president, at least since the early 60’s. After his loss in 1976 he took his conservative message everywhere, the rest is history. Palin is doing similar. In a way, it’s good McCain didn’t win. Palin is more effective right now than being some obscure VP. We’ve got a couple years, let’s she what she’s going to do this year. She’s one tough lady, sorta reminds me of Margaret Thatcher.
