Thinking there is a third party happening is like
waiting for the Easter bunny.
The only reason Hoffman is in the majority is: He is a life long Republican, the NY Conservative Party are Republicans, the 23rd Dist. has 44,000 more Republicans than Democrats.

Having more than two parties used to be normal in this country, so don't count them out. We've reached a point where the two parties do everything they can to maintain the Status quo of only having two major parties and that's gotten us into trouble and it's given them more power than they deserve. It's given us, and will continue to give us, candidates that do not reflect our beliefs and values. Instead, it gives us candidates meant to appeal to moderates or to the left, while ignoring Conservatives. Moderates are people unwilling to take a stance.
I'm not going to jump on the Libertarian loony train like Ron Paul, Glenn Beck, and Bob Barr, but there are other parties I'm looking in to.
