Do you bother to read the whole article ?

From the article:

Of course, Scozzafava would have in all likelihood held the seat for the GOP if Conservative Party nominee Doug Hoffman had not been in the race. And Hoffman might not have held it as the Republican nominee.

Do you bother to read the whole article ?

Did you bother to read my subtitle, "Finally, Scozzafava is called a liberal."

It's the first time in the mainstream media that I read Scozzafava being described acurately. That was the reason that I posted the article. Everyone and their mother was calling her a moderate.

"He (Hoffman) was a truly awful selection. I hope this fiasco has sent a message to the Conservatives, that you can't just run any inarticulate boob who espouses the "right" values. "

Hoffman had the gonads to challenge these RINOs. I give him credit for that. If even he was a newbie to politics and lacked a glib tongue, he helped to expose Scozzafava as a liberal. Scozzafava sealed that deal when she endorsed Owens.

It would be one thing if Scozzafava balanced that social liberalism with fiscal conservatism. But as a state assemblywoman, she voted for massive tax increases, Democratic budgets and a $180 million state bank bailout.

The GOP needed Scozzafava like the stupid party needed another hole in its head.
