Scozzafava? I think he would have voted for her. She also was the one that had RNC support. She also ran as an independent and split the vote so the democrat could win.
The “R” can also mean “Rino”. By this thinking we should all go out and campaign for Snowe, Collins, and the other liberal republicans. Because they have to be better than a democrat because they have an “R” behind their name.
I remember the Scuzzyfava affair. Newt helped too.
