Yes, he did - breaking a campaign promise. Who knows if she would have. But, if her history is/was any indication, I imagine she would have.

Several days before the election while we were all screaming at Newt, Owens said that supported the public option as it was currently written.

Scuzzifavor specifically said in her campaign that she was against the public option.

Those are the facts.

So, during the lion's share of the campaign he was against the so-called public option, but on Sunday night, less than 30 hours before voting began, he changed his position, quietly. You mean those facts.

Like I said, he broke a campaign promise - Kerry style. He was against it before he was for it.

The bottom line is that Hoffman damn near won and would have walked away with it if the 11 pub county leaders in NY27 had chosen Hoffman to begin with.

I hope the guy (McHugh?) who abandoned the office to go be zero’s army bitch drops dean tomorrow or zero fires him tomorrow and throws him away like a wad of used toilet paper.

Owens, Cao and a weak blue dog. That’s all it took, and the pubs allowing themselves to get sucker-punched by Bart Stupak and Nancy Pelosi. The pubs are so damn dim-witted they’re beyond embarrassing.
