Ed Rendell (D-PA) and Debbie Wasserman-Schultz (D-FL) were crowing all over Fox News earlier tonight that Owens was going to win. This was much earlier tonight when no one had a clue as to how NY-23 would shake out. Makes me wonder what really went on behind the scenes in this race...
Let them crow or whatever they want to do.
Here is the reality:
The GOP threw its support to a democrat, and really DuDu was a democrat and then, at the 11th hour, changed position and threw its support to Hoffman when it was too late to do anything. In the meantime, the candidate they threw their support to screwed the GOP and showed her true colors.
Now Joe Scarborough and others are going to claim that it was conservatives who lost this race or that conservatism lost? Really? The contortions they will have to go through to get to that conclusion will strain credibility and ignore the results in NJ and VA.
I am not happy Hoffman lost but honestly thought it was a longshot that at third pary candidate could win, especially when the GOP candidate was still on the ballot.
The question the MSM will ignore in their quest to brand this a loss for conservatives is this: what if Hoffman had been the GOP nominee in the first place?
If you know anthing at all about the Democrat Party and how they steal elections and manufacture votes, thn you have a pretty good idea as to what happened.
