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)

When Henny penny asked for help baking the cake, no one stepped up. When she took that cake out of the oven, every one was eager to help her eat it.

Newt, you need a sixth month penitential retreat.

[Recon Dad]

Yeah, I was on that post last week with Mojave. Where do you go after making an ass of yourself?

[icwhatudo]

Give Newt the boot!

[wastedyears]

Newt, you’re a horse’s ass.

[Night Hides Not]

What do you when cross a Newt with a Tweet?

Broken wind.

[DocH]

Too late "Oh Neutered One".

Disingenuous BS at this point.

[RushIsMyTeddyBear]

Little late.

[Rocky]

He was against him before he was for him.

[bigbob]

Screw you Newt. You’re no longer needed here. Go away.

[Citizen Soldier]

He is a publicity hog too. He is like clinton is, the bride at every wedding, the corpse at every funeral.

[Homer1]

better late than never

[Josh Painter]

“What do you when cross a Newt with a Tweet?”

A RINO that looks like Chris Matthews...

Thanks Newt, too bad you had to be beaten over the head, idiot.

[Seaplaner]

He was against him before he was for him.

Priceless!

Where do you go after making an ass of yourself?

A proctologist?

Newt might be able to salvage some political respect from right wing voters if he negotiates with Scuzzy to come out and voice her strong support for Doug Hoffman. That support might be a tie breaker in NY23, or keep this election out of court battles. So,how about it Newt? Hop on a plane and go negotiate with her.

I stayed a registered republican after the 08 primaries for just this reason. We have closed primaries here and I cannot wait to pull the lever for RUBIO!
