Great stuff, Cyne!
I just LOVE the conservative revolt against the GOP hacks, that fat f**k Gingrich included.
Maybe even especially.
BTW, he doesn't see his own hypocrisy in chastising others about weighing in on a local election? Did he move there from Georgia, or what? Another classic case of elitist "do as I say, not as I do".
He is SOOOOOOO past his "use by" date. He hasn't jumped the shark; he bored the shark to death.
Hot damn! I never thought I'd grow up to be an anarchist, but when it comes to destroying the entrenched GOP heirarchy, I am soooo there!
Man, we were WAY out in front of the curve on this whole thing.
LOL

...since those dark days last year when we were all dug in at the Orphanage and generally personae non gratae at most of the blogs on TH.
Conservatives have been sending this message since Juan McAmnesty tried to shove amnesty down our throats. IMO, that's when he lost the '08 election, November was just a formality.
I'm happy to see some of the established names finally showing up. It's been lonely here in SCDSland!

hey Wulf!
What I don't get is these stupid asp Republicans who act as if the sky is going to fall if Hoffman gets elected. They whine about Hoffman not having a (R) beside his name, and that they NEED Scozzafava to join the caucus...as if Hoffman is going to caucus with anyone OTHER than the GOP! I mean, the guy's a Republican for Pete's Sake, and is only running on the Conservative Party ticket because the Republicans went with Arlene Specterfava...a person who was shoppng her wares to the Democrats right until the NY GOP leaders paid the rate to get her in the room.
As for Newt, that guy ain't a conservative...he's a politician. All he cares about is winning and he's been that way since he got his grubby little hands on the Speaker's gavel back in the day. Why conservatives ever listen to that crumb-bum is beyond me!
And now that I'm finished, I'll read the other comments!

NY-23 is a great example of what's wrong with the GOP, or as Brian says GOP=SP.
If you have a conservative district why run a liberal, and how about Newt's lame reasons for his support of Scozzafava. Is he supposed to be a conservative? He just f**ked over all of us that are.

One of the Townhall bloggers (Matt Lewis?) thinks Newt won't suffer any long term damage, but I'm not so sure. If this was a year ago, I might agree, but in this climate, I think he took aim at his foot and unloaded the whole clip.

Jev,
I thoroughly agree. While I was disappointed in Newt's endorsement of the Repuplican leftist, I was even more taken aback by his underhanded tactics. For instance, Newt says that Hoffman lives out of the district, like he's some kind of carpet bagger. But in reality, Hoffman's house had been in that district until a couple years when Republican gerrymandering put him in a neighboring district. Even so, he lives a mere 10 minutes away. And Newt tries to paint him as not knowing the local politics? What respect I had for Newt, and it was not inconsiderable, is now completely gone.

Good news Cyne,
let's hope we get a lot more of it, otherwise I still don't see any reason to expect much in 2010 or even 2012. I don't care how many reasons the Dims give folks to vote against them, if you want to beat them you've got to give folks reasons to vote for you, and the last time the Reps did that we were all a lot younger, and we all respected Newt a lot more.

Newt Goes Nuts, Cyne
I knew Newt had problems when he did the global warming commercials. You have to wonder if the 1992 Newt would have done those ads or if the Washington "mindset" corrupted him?
Perhaps Newt's actions in the last 3 or 4 years are just another reason to get term limits. It almost seems that the coruption in DC eventually gets to everybody.
But this Hoffman deal is proving to be a "turning point". The effect of this vast support for a true Conservative candidate is scaring the RINO's to death.
Purge all RINO's time?
Maybe not yet, but it is coming and coming fast. I believe we will know it is here when more RINO's switch and join the Democrat Party as "moderate" Democrats.

I have always loved that scene, mostly because it has happen thousands of time in boot camp. I don't remember ever see a jelly doughnut at Parris Island but it is a movie, right?
I got an email from some our local Tea Party members who are working the election in NY-23. Here's part of it:
"Polls are showing Hoffman in the lead, and the events we've been to suggest that the Democrat and the Republican are both underdogs.
We believe the conservative candidate in this race can win this, and we believe it will be a HUGE victory for the Tea Party Movement."
I've only known the source since April so I take with a grain of salt but it looks good.

Hoffman definitely seems to have the momentum. I hear Kos has withdrawn his support of The Scozz and isnt' backing anyone in the race. He says it's because no one in the race is far enough to the left, but it seems to me he's just weaseling out of being on the losing side.

KBH has been good on most issues in the Senate, but occasionally wishy-washy. Perry was a big nothing for the first few years of his governorship, but has really grown into the job in the past 4 years. I'm voting for Perry.
Now if I can only win a big Powerball or Mega Millions soon, I could run for KBH's Senate seat!

It pains me to say it but the magic marker bandits would be step up for the GOP.
The Scuzzy withdrawal is an important moment for the conservative movement. Newt is now trying to drop the bag he got left holding by endorsing Hoffman.
I think I would have preferred that she stay in since she was hurting the democrat as much as the conservative. This could be a close one. I wonder how many people have already voted by absentee or early voting?

Brian,
Apparently he's even mentioned a run for President (he doesn't want to, but if he sees a need...). I'm thinking that plane's not getting off the ground.
Clyde,
I've heard alot of talk about how the RNC has to support who the local GOP picks, but, as Brian has noted, somehow when it's a conservative who is nominated, the funds don't flow to him. Oddly, the RNC's strategery never involves supporting conservatives.
Sarge,
That seems to be the consensus, that the marker bandits have a slight edge in the wits department. As for NY23, the numbers I've seen seem to show a Hoffman victory. But counting chickens and all that...
