Newt: "I am, however, deeply dissapointed that she has chosen to back Owens over Hoffman."

I Am Endorsing Doug Hoffman

Updated 11/1 - The race has evolved into a contest between a conservative and a pro-Pelosi, tax increase, big government liberal Democrat.

This is both a tribute to the power of the national conservative movement to define an issue and a commentary on the populist anger against politics-as-usual.

The New York GOP has now had two troubled special elections and it is clear they should go to a primary nominating system so everyone will feel it was fair and open.

The age of party leaders picking people is over.

Scozzafava did the right thing in dropping out. I am, however, deeply dissapointed that she has chosen to back Owens over Hoffman.

I am endorsing Doug Hoffman and believe everyone who wants to create jobs with lower taxes and to control spending and deficits should vote for Doug Hoffman Tuesday.

I firmly believe that newt’s donking his assistant was in the FBI file that the Clinton Whitehouse had in their files. I firmly believe that newt was blackmailed into betraying the Republican Revolution of 1994.

newt can’t be trusted. It takes two points to define a line and newt betrayed two wives. newt is defined.

You embraced Pelosi on global warming, now you expect us to believe this?

Suck on it, Newt, you RINO.

Cheers!

It is very telling that Dede would back the Dem—really shows how totally misguided GOP was for backing her!!!!!!!!!!

It’s interesting to read all these great posts.
Newt, taking all the heat.

Yet, the ones who are ACTUALLY RESPONSIBLE... The GOP leadership are getting off easy.

Newt deserves every bit of scorn he gets.

However, why are we letting the ones who made this decision off the hook so easily.

Until their are leadership changes, nothing else will.

Newt’s latest book is about to drop off the Amazon Top 100 after a mere two weeks. See ya, big guy.

Dear Newt, I deeply disappointed that your time on the couch with Pelosi has made you a Zer0-brainer wrt NY23

Singing a duet with Sharpton about global warming didn't help him either.

Screw you, Newt.

It's not a "populist" uprising. Union goons are "populists."

This is about conservative principles.

The fact that you don't get that means you are part of the problem.

Please start your own "moderate" third party, Newt, and step aside for the adults in the GOP.

No shit, Newt! Now go away. You have proven you can't be trusted. Sarah Palin has kicked your butt and you don't even realize it.

Sarah Palin is a leader and you, Newt, are a hack.

Newt’s been covering his ass today

He started this morning with the Friends whining and blaming the local Repubs for everything. Get over yourself, Newt! Go write another book or something.

Newt’s not a RINO, but he does seem to be getting a bit senile.

parsy, who is glad he jumped the GOP ship 8 years ago and became a Democrat, advocating wealth redistribution, minimum wage-as-a-living wage, George Wallace-styled populism and heavy regulations on big corporations and Wall Street because the Republican Party is too economically conservative for his self-admitted progressivism.

Chunga, who's glad to help parsifal speak the whole truth

That is the operant syndrome. We send our guys to Washington and then they aren’t our guys anymore.

Aren’t you bothered by the old satyr running around with his THIRD wife (abandoned the first one on her hospital bed recovering from a mastectomy, the second one after years of cheating on her) blabbering on about, of all things, REDISCOVERING GOD IN AMERICA!!!!!

Good grief, how about discovering God in his own HOUSE before telling the rest of us how to find God?!

Defending Newt is like the libtards defending Clinton because all the other good things he had done.

He was, is, and will be just another windbag sticking his wet finger to fine tune his next oration. You were right once Newt, good, thanks for that one, but you’re still a lousy human being.

This last episode was the same fan dance, but he suffered a spectacular pratfall, and we got to see not the fine public figure of the GOP’s imagination, but a preening wasted sagging rump running around trying to salvage the illusion that he matters.

Go spend the night with Callista Newt, and rediscover God in your own home.

Close. Just substitute “too economically libertarian” and we’re there.
