Latest news from Jim Hoff re Hoffman in NY-23: PPP: Hoffman Leads Dem Owens By 15 in NY-23 Sunday, November 1, 2009, 10:58 PM Jim Hoft gatewaypundit.firstthings.com The Public Policy Polling reported tonight that conservative Doug Hoffman is leading Democrat Bill Owens by 15 points in a head-to-head contest. Here are some interesting facts from our unweighted numbers so far: -In a three way contest Doug Hoffman leads Bill Owens by 19 points. In a two way contest Hoffman leads Owens by 15 points. So the Dede Scozzafava withdrawal and endorsement will probably tighten the race some but not nearly enough. -58% of Republicans think that Scozzafava’s a liberal and that was obviously before her endorsement today. -The Rush Limbaugh effect- Hoffman has a 79 point lead with Rush listeners while Owens has a 6 point lead with people who don’t listen to the show. More… The PPP also has Christie leading Corzine by 6, 47-41 in New Jersey. UPDATE: Country star John Rich will headline the Watertown “get-out-the-vote” rally Monday night for Hoffman. Comments (5)

What Scozzafavia has done is the smarmiest action I've ever seen from a politician. This will not help her cause because it is repugnant.

Winning? More like flushing out Dede Scozzafava.

Want to make a bet that Scozzafava reappears in a few months as a demorat? Didn't take her long to sell out to the democrat party, where her true sympathies lie. Just goes to show us all, especially when it comes to smaller elections with new names involved, that voting strictly by party affiliation should not be done without a requisite excursion into the candidates past voting records..... Life is like a box of chocolates.......you never know what you're gonna get....UNLESS YOU RESEARCH THE CANDIDATE....<g>
