		<description>I saw Newt&#039;s mea culpa too.  He sounded earnest.

If he&#039;d only give up the whole global warming bit, I&#039;d trust him again.</description>

		<description>Uhhhhh, Obama won 52-47 in NY23 in 2008.  This district is hardly a Republican stronghold.

Scazzafova would have voted along Owen&#039;s party line and McHugh the turncoat was rated 71% Conservative, sooooo, what&#039;s all the hub  bub BUBB?</description>

		<description>Newt speaks.

&quot;She was the wrong nominee and it was a terrible position.&quot;  i.e., Newt&#039;s was a terrible position.

http://hotair.com/archives/2009/11/04/gingrich-on-ny-23-conservatives-have-every-right-to-be-angry-at-me/

This of course, won&#039;t quell the long knives, but I don&#039;t know what else the man could say.

As I&#039;ve said in several ways in the last few days, the man deserves respect.  Nobody is right 100% of the time.  Without people like him, we won&#039;t be able to throw the real enemies in jail and swallow the keys.</description>

		<description>Right of the People:  &quot;They [RNC] won&#039;t get another penny from me.&quot;

I believe it was Sam Francis who first dubbed the Republicans as &quot;the Stupid Party.&quot;  

The RNC gave $900,000 to Scuzzyfrodo for her campaign.  Then she turned around and endorsed the Democrat.

This is why I am not a Republican.

Doug Hoffman is precisely the type of citizen-patriot whom the founders had in mind to lead their new republic.  It was a noble ideal.</description>

		<description>Considering where Hoffman&#039;s name appeared on the ballot, and the last-minute circumstances surrounding this race, this was a resounding victory for the right.

Let it serve as a lesson to the country club Republican party in this state and elsewhere; without candidates that appeal strongly to its conservative base, the Republican party is doomed to a permanent minority role.</description>

		<description>&quot;He’s an accountant for heaven’s sake, he’s supposed to look mousey. &quot;

He lost at least 3% with the suit, more with women.

People are in-tune to personal appearance....it&#039;s in our genes.....we make judgements within seconds on that stuff....unless the candidate is an Einstein, which Doug isn&#039;t.

Nice man, good conservative.  God bless him.  His candidacy had an impact that will reverberate for decades.

But we need better candidates than Mr Hoffman next year.</description>

If he&#039;d been picked from the beginning instead of the Scuzzy Hag like he should have been and given support early on, he&#039;d be the winner today.  I heard him on the Glenn Beck show about a month ago when the RNC was still trying to act like he didn&#039;t exist.  Steele and the rest of the ass clowns at the RNC should be ashamed.  They won&#039;t get another penny from me.</description>

&quot;Dick Morris here.  Political Operative Extraordinaire.&quot;

&quot;Hi Dick, Your President here, and I&#039;ve got Rahm and the most beautiful woman in the world with me.&quot;

&quot;Does Michelle know?  Oh wait, wait...good. GOOD, sir!

&quot;Dick, we have something here you might be interested in.&quot;

&quot;Sir, I&#039;ve been expecting this call.  Like you, I&#039;ve been thinking about last night, and I have lots of ideas.  I did this before for the first Black President, and I can do it for you too, sir.  But, heh heh, the price will be a little different this time.  Heh, heh.&quot;

&quot;Dick, shove it up your ass.  We aren&#039;t interested in your triangulation crap.  Actually, we have something else to ask of you.&quot;

&quot;What sir, what is it.&quot;

&quot;It&#039;s this you whiney shithead.  Do you want a lower bunk or an upper bunk in the Gulag.  We&#039;ve already got it ready in Montana for you and every other shithead at Fox News and the Tea Baggers who won&#039;t shut up, and shut up now.  Verstehen sie?  Auf wiedersehn Dickhead, und viel Glück.&quot;

		<description>Not to split hairs...but you wrote:

&quot;It’s kind of hard to see this as a blow to the right when the conservative candidate got 49% of the vote to the Democrats 49% — and the titular Republican got 6% of the vote.&quot;

I know its a Democratic win, but it should STILL add up to 100% of the total vote...unless of course Acorn is doing the counting.</description>

		<description>Hoffman shows up 30 days before an election...never held public office... no major party backing...is thrust into the national spotlight and comes under assault by both political machines.

He bags himself a RINO and comes within 3 percentage points of winning a seat in the House of Representatives.  Looks like a success story to me.</description>

		<description>Answer me this NY Times, what was the difference between Scozzafava and Owens.  Name one policy difference.  So how is the rebuke of a Democratic candidate, Scozzafava, by the GOP a rift?  I forgot, that is how the Times likes their Republicans.  To me it says a lot that a third party challanger can remove an obivious plant and barely lose in an extremely close election with just 30 days of campaigning.  Maybe there is hope for America afterall.</description>

		<description>The 23rd District is economically depressed up there.  They are liberal when it comes to welfare issues.  Funny, the Dem didn&#039;t get the majority vote.  Were it not for the RINO (Thank you Mr. Steele) the Republicans would have won the seat.</description>

		<description>Losing NY-23 is a blow to the RNC and not the conservative movement.

It also proves that RINOs are natural-born losers.  And that the DNC learns faster then the RNC.</description>
