It is pure BULL!
It is very rare, in this country, for a 3rd Party candidate to do as well as Hoffman.
Conservatives did NOT suffer a loss in the 23rd. Instead, conservatives fought the good fight, were wildly outspent, and have an excellent shot at taking this seat in 2010 -— at the same time conservatives probably ended the career of a RINO!
Absolutely agree! This was very close for a third party candidate and if you look at the combined vote totals for the Conservative and Republican parties - he won. I have no doubt that most of those “Republican” votes were cast without any knowledge of the fact that she withdrew or was the kind of candidate she was - way too many really don’t pay attention to politics - just vote their party on election day.
I agree and I think the VA and NJ are far more important. Barryboy campaigned for them and the DNC spent lots of money and still lost. NY is chicken feed compared to these two.
