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)

It’s too bad Newt joined the Scazzafava RINO death charge ... To whatever extent he had commitment to conservative principles in the past, he is obviously a RINO party insider now, and he has lost his political instincts completely if he didn’t see this coming.

Like this post, you are a little late to the party, Mr. Newt.

Hey, Newt. Just go over in the corner and sit down with the other has-beens...Jimmy Carter, Algore, Dan Quale. You have about the same credability and influence.

Newt..poor newt...changing horses in mid stream....Never mind the fact that most Conservatives wouldnt listen to what he says because he is a polical whore.
He should just fade into the dark. Let real Conservatives rebuild the GOP....

Newt has proven conclusively that his principles are firmly rooted in the direction of the wind. He’s a squishy RINO opportunist but, more importantly, he’s finished.
