It was the right thing to do. Thanks, DeDe, for stepping back.

Gingrich is TOAST! Palin is the FUTURE.

[pabianice]

She is now asking her supprters to vote Democrat. This is the type of behavior that led to the invention of the guillotine.

[CPT Clay]

You’re right, Crist is next. Go Marco!!!

Considering how tight a race it is, that is a defining point and will almost assuredly win the race for Hoffman.

Did you mean Hoffman (the "conservative?), or Owens (the Democrat)?

[rwfromkansas]

Owens.

That said, the polls today are encouraging. I would LOVE to be dead wrong on this....and may actually be tomorrow.

That said, there is a large group of undecideds now...if they mostly break hoffman or just stay home, hoffman wins.

I heard Ray Arroyo this morning, subbing for Laura Ingraham, say that this district is strongly Republican and has elected only Republicans since the Civil War. Therefore, it is surprising to see the Dem polling as well as he is. I think it depends on how strong the backlash will be to the type of tactics that ousted Scozzafava.

If Hoffman wins, he is actually an unknown, has no track record in elected office or in conservative organizations. How did he receive so many “endorsements?”
