Oh the wringing of hands.... Hoffman can't win so let's get behind Dede Scozzafava, the "Republican" candidate for NY-23 House seat.
I say "Damn the torpedoes, Full Speed Ahead!" If Hoffman splits the vote because the voters in Watertown, Massena, Potsdam, Ogdensburg and Plattsburgh are too damn ignorant to know a good conservative when they see one, SO BE IT!
Let Nancy have her additional House seat and with it perhaps she can ram through more socialistic monstrosities which have done so much to help our economy. You know, like the TARP legislation, the "Stimulus package" (i.e. Pork-ulus) and other bail-outs gone wild!
I've said it before and I will say it again. This may sound cold-hearted and mean but this country will not wake-up until it experiences massive pain. And when I say pain I mean crushing taxes at all levels, massive unemployment, a devalued US dollar and a severe drop in our standard of living. We've had it too good for too long in this country and with all the great gadgets and technology, especially cable tv, why pay attention to spendthrifts in Washington, D.C.? Besides, "that stuff doesn't affect any of us anyways". Yeah.....rite.
So let a good percentage of NY-23 remain in a state of "political hibernation". As the chickens come home to roost in the future, these same people WILL NOT BE ABLE TO BLAME CONSERVATISM! Why? Because they didn't turn to it when they needed it most!
Principle over pragmatism, that is the choice we face. Hoffman is the principled choice, so easy a caveman could figure it out.
