Seeing the numbers that the RAT is pulling in Erie County... I don’t see how Corwin can win this. This is pretty much over and will be a RAT pickup.

What a shame. I am so mad at that Chris Lee. What a dope. Now the media and the Dems will be crowing about their huge victory, and he helped hand it to them. But I thought this was a majority Republican district. What is with voters there turning blue now?! Do they want to go back to the days of the Pelosi Congress?? If they are so timid that the GOP Congress has them so scared then what hope is there.

Medicare.

The American people are just not yet ready to deal with entitlements. This nation is still wedded to the social welfare state and there is real clear evidence that people are willing to ween themselves from it.

[manc]

there is no way a Dem can win in today’s climate in these kind of areas unless there is a massive fraud.

I thought up there was a more conservative area too .

Thanks.

[KevinDavis]

The only reason why this is happening is the fake Tea Party Candidate..

[KevinDavis]

It is the third party candidate that is doing the trick...

[Kickass Conservative]

Davis the former Democrat and FAKE Tea Party Candidate worked out well for his buddy Hochul.

Looks like you only have to fool 8% of the people part of the time, on Election Day.

That was my thought, also - cannot see a taxpayer voting D.

Using fraud as an excuse is just not gonna cut it. This is a very heavily conservative district. If we lose, it won't be because of fraud.

There is fake Tea Party candidate drawing 5-10% of the vote and the American people do not seem willing to even reform Medicare - let alone curtail entitlements.

41 + 8 = 49

49 < 50

[perfect_rovian_storm]

And the scumbag NY GOP gets the loss that it was screaming for yet again.

[Kickass Conservative]

The Rats are spinning this as Voter reaction to the Ryan Budget Medicare Plan.

[TNCMAXQ]

The Dem is close to 50% anyway. Unless every vote went from the fake TP guy to the Republican it looks like she might have lost anyway. Too bad. Sounds like Corwin would have been an asset to the House GOP.

So now the Dems will think they can use this to take back their majority next year? If the American people are that weak willed then we are in big trouble.

[manc]

we have so many problems so there is no way any idiot except the socialist, commies and lay abouts/ union hacks would vote Dem right now and even if this third party is a fake tea party then surely the voters up there cannot be this stupid can they?
