Too late.
Too late.
That's because most conservatives have other things to do with their lives if they lose an election, and don't see politics as a career anyway.
Most liberals, on the other hand, wouldn't even be employable if it weren't for such "opportunities" as politics, the legal industry, and public education.
And how many of those mail in votes will be for Scozza?
“We as conservatives are not wired to fight the kind of dirty war as the left does.”
What do you mean - Im a conservative and I do...
what happens to the vote cast for the health bill by owens if it turns out owens lost?
Hey, lets have a pool.
I’m in at a -2086 difference for Hoffman.
You know darn well had Scsi been the Dem nominee who dropped out due to tons of support for a liberal third party candidate, it would have been claimed that "voter intent" was to support whichever liberal remained in the race and votes would be assigned as such.
Is that anything like 'de-gifting'?
I think that potentially we are in for a long slow fight of attrition, but it will be their attrition, not ours.
Just looking at the myriad destructive uses to which BOTH the upcoming trials of Major Hasan and KSM will be put, they want to provoke a ‘radical’ response from us.THey want to goad us into a kind of action that they are just salivating to put down, they want us to live up to the distorted and downright overwrought and cynically dishonest assessment of us as the REAL threat for domestic terrorism as it was suggested in that leaked document from Janet Napolitano.WE know how both these trials will be played out, sometime in the possibly distant future, what the potential is for either of them unleashing a new spate of domestic AND global terrorist attacks, kidnappings, hostage-takings, beheadings,
but of course we don’t dare act pre-emptively: we’re expected to sit back and watch this whole new outrage lurch forward, defining itself over many months if not years, as if THIS is the way to deal with Islamic Terrorism. I don’t see us doing that. But I do think that smarter course of action for us would be to very carefully watch the Obama/Holder strategy and start answering it in all its details. The WORST thing to do is to do all this beseeching, this special pleading, this polite approach where we beg “Mr. President” and “Mr. Attorney General” to do the right thing, please, and not have the KSM trial here, in NYC.
I think we are WAY past that point: they have spoken and declared their intentions in no uncertain terms: let their decisions take on a life of their own, attain critical mass, THEN nail them. NO BEGGING!!
Fighting on our terms certainly seems to throw them off their game.
Is Owens actually a member of the House of Representatives? He has not been certified by the Sec’y of State of New York.
If Pelosi can choose Owens over Hoffman, even if Hoffman ends up with more votes...
then Pelosi can just go around the country choosing the winner in EVERY election!
Please, don’t anybody tell Pelosi about this power of hers!
State has not certified a victor, Pelosi does not trump the vote in NY-23.
I'm a bit confused on that, but suspect the Frisco Bimbo tried to get a concession before the military had it's say so.
It sure wouldn't be the 1st time the Dhingis have deliberatly disenfranchised our Defenders.
1) monitors with camcorders and extra batteries watching polling booths all day
2) all counting done on video
3) lawyers on call in close districts, ready to sue
4) “muscle” on site to make sure shennanegans don’t happen
We must make it harder to cheat.
I stopped voting absentee here in San Diego when I was told the mail ins would not be counted if “someone” determined that it would not change the results
Just keep ticking the electorate of the 23rd off. Owens has to run in 10 short months. Does Hoffman want a rematch?
They get counted for Dede Scozzafava.
