This is amazing. All happened within a two week period. I think Gingrich actually did him a favor by poking the sleeping giant in the eye.

I don't believe this is true, but it's a possibility: Suppose Gingrich knew he'd enrage the conservative bloc? Suppose he kept poking us with more and more outlandish comments on purpose? He's not up for any elections. It would have been brilliant strategery.

Go Hoffman!! No more RINOS!!

I have read polls showing Hoffman leading by a good margin. IF HE WINS, it could be a watershed victory, proving that indeed we don't have to put up with no more Rinos!. It could lead to an insurgency in the RP, such as happened after 1964. OR, it could lead to a new national party - the Conservative Party! In a three-way race, what would Rinos have to offer?

Well, maybe I am over-optimistic, but "could happen, ya know?"

So please stop following Newt’s stupidity in pretending like he is an outsider.

Goodness, I'm not following Newt's stupidity. The very idea! I have more than enough of my own stupidity to follow, thank you very much. No, I was joking with the poster who thought Hoffman was running against Jon Corzine in New Jersey.

Well, he sure poked us. That’s a fact. Whether he meant to or not, will remain forever in his fevered brain.

About as brilliant as smooching with The Wicked Witch of the West on the couch and drinking the AGW koolaid.

Does Hoffman have a pro-gun voting record?

I don’t know, but I did find this:

“As an NRA member, Doug believes the Second Amendment is far more vital to our nation than just protecting the recreational activities of hunters and target shooters. The Founding Fathers thought these right’s so vital to a free country that they specifically created the Bill of Rights. They did not want to leave any doubt as to what tools must be available to the lone citizen.

• The first amendment’s protection of the ability to question government and assuring the capacity of citizens to communicate to one another.
• The fifth amendment’s designation of property rights as the clear demarcation line between the individual and the community.
• The fourth, fifth, sixth, and seventh’s establishing the due process by which the judiciary and law enforcement officers must adhere to in applying the law to individuals.

But the second amendment was included to give bite to the other protections outlined in the Bill of Rights. Without it, all other amendments are nothing more than talk.

Doug Hoffman believes citizens in all states plus the District of Columbia should have a “Right to Carry” with a CCW permits, a right that is now enjoyed in over 38 states.

Doug Hoffman opposes any federal ban or registration on the types and cosmetics of rifles that law-abiding American citizens can own.”

And Michelle Bachmann - the first incumbent Republican to endorse Hoffman. She did so about 6-8 hours before Sarah. The GOP women are gutsy.

That list isn’t complete - many more, I have heard, came out to endorse Hoffman - Mark Levin is one. This election we are separating the wheat from the chaff! The RINO’S deceitful ways are being exposed.

How can he - he hasn’t held public office! He’s not a politician.

You expect brilliance from Newt - so when he exposes his lack of it - one might assume "it's just a move but we can't see the brilliance of that move, yet!" Not hardly - face it, he's a RINO and the 'brilliant' mask is off and a deceitful mask replaced it. He's aligned himself w/Al Sharpton, Pelosi and all the RINO'S and against conservatives values.

He's not up for any elections

If he runs on the Democrat ticket, he might have a chance.
