Yep, the good people of the 23rd need to elect a guy who doesn't know where Watertown is located, doesn't have a clue about any local issues, and doesn't give a damn about the people in that district. He just wants an opportunity to be a Rush salad tosser.
Great choice. |

The bottom line here is that people are sick and tired of the spend and tax Liberals. The Conservative pick is the common sense, sane pick. I hope this can springboard Conservatives throughout the Country.

Hoffmans a local boy. Plattsburg State. Helped organize the 1980 Lake Placid Olympics. Has run a business in the district for 25 years. Oh, I know what you mean. He's not a career politician. |

[sarcasm] We can't have anything like THAT now can we? God forbid we change our way of thinking and vote for something new and different. Oh, no, no, no, that won't do at all. This is New York State home of the same old same old liberal tax and spend politics. [/sarcasm]

Scozzafava shows true stripes
And this is why she should have never been the Republican nominee to begin with.
http://watertowndailytimes.com/artic...WS09/911019992 Lifelong Republican throws support to Democrat Owens Those in the camp of the Conservative candidate Douglas L. Hoffman called Ms. Scozzafava a turncoat. “This afternoon Dede Scozzafava betrayed the GOP,“ Senior Communications Advisor Rob Ryan said in a statement. “She endorsed a Pelosi Democrat who will spend more, tax more, and push the liberal agenda that is dragging down this nation.” Hope Hoffman beats Owens by double didgets. |

Why don't you explain how Hoffman was gerrymandered out of that district just recently. But go celebrate this minor Libtard win. I'll celebrate the Obama smackdown delivered in NJ and Va. |

Not to worry, after the 2010 census, the DEM's in the state will be chopping up this district since NYS is losing so much population!

My take away is simple, Hoffman could have won if he was not stained by the Conservative Party, their negative ads, and their faux morality.
In such a conservative district, that's a key note.
