New Poll for NY23 shows Hoffman Leading

New CFG Poll shows Hoffman 31.3%, Owens 27.0%, Scozzafava 19.7%

Maybe it's because the Republican candidate received and accepted the Margaret Sanger Award

Lisa Miller Confronts Newt Gingrich at his McLean Book Signing

If you attended the Webb or Connolly Tea Party rally's in Northern Virginia this past summer, chances are you ran into Lisa Miller . Lisa has her own channel on youtube and has done a lot of wonderful work. You can follow Lisa on teapartyning and on Facebook.
This Saturday, Lisa went to Newt Gingrich's book signing and asked him why he endorsed Scozzafava in NY's 23rd district.

She was noticed by Ed Morrissy of HOTAIR.COM and Ed explains why Newt's explanation to Lisa was wrong.
"If Scozzafava wins it, it will make it more difficult for a fiscal conservative to dislodge her in the 2010 primary. If the Democrat wins it, Pelosi wins one more vote for a year in a chamber which already gives her a 70-seat majority, and Hoffman can run as the truly Republican candidate in 2010."

When Sarah Palin endorsed Hoffman, Hoffman raised $116,000 in ONE DAY! Believe me when I tell you ..that got the attention of the NY and NATIONAL GOP more than the 1 MILLION of us who showed up in DC on 912.
In Politics, Money has the loudest voice.
A $5.00 donation from tens of thousands of people is real money! Sending a small donation to CONSERVATIVE CANDIDATES all over the country will be a POWERFUL message to the Old Guard

Eric Erikson over at REDSTATE.com is a great source. He keeps track of good candidates all over the country.
Here's Eric's take on NY23
I have been clear that I agree with the GOP to the extent that candidates should match their districts. I am not opposed to, for example, a Mark Kirk in Illinois, or a Mike Castle in Delaware, though I won’t lift a finger to help him. I understand that to get to 51% we have to have our share of Chris Shays’s.
But, in races like the Florida Senate and New York 23, when a conservative can win, a conservative should be supported. Conservatives are the base of the Republican Party.
I hope I have helped change the party’s electoral orthodoxy. Right now it involves telling the base to fork over the dough and shut the hell up.
We will no longer stay silent. NY-23 makes very clear that the GOP needs the conservative base more than the conservative base needs the GOP

DOUG HOFFMAN RAISES $116,000 IN ONE DAY AFTER PALINS ENDORSEMENT
Just how effective has Sarah Palin’s intervention in the NY23 special election been? Douglas Hoffman, the Conservative Party candidate that got Palin’s endorsement, raised $116,000 in a single day, according to a source within the campaign.

If Doug Hoffman wins this election, watch as the liberal media becomes more unhinged and their attacks against Sarah Palin grow even more disgusting.

NEW GUARD VS OLD GUARD CONTINUES

The Bumpy Night Begins
The 09 election is turning into a nail biter!

Sarah Palin has officially endorsed Independent Doug Hoffman who is running against GOP/ACORN/Daily Kos/ Newt Gingrich enndorsed candidate Scozzafava in NY's 23 district

She said..
It’s my honor to endorse Doug and to do what I can to help him win, including having my political action committee, SarahPAC, donate to his campaign the maximum contribution allowed by law.

Our nation is at a crossroads, and this is once again a “time for choosing.”

The federal government borrows, spends, and prints too much money, while our national debt hits a record high. Government is growing while the private sector is shrinking, and unemployment is on the rise. Doug Hoffman is committed to ending the reckless spending in Washington, D.C. and the massive increase in the size and scope of the federal government. He is also fully committed to supporting our men and women in uniform as they seek to honorably complete their missions overseas.

And best of all, Doug Hoffman has not been anointed by any political machine.

Doug Hoffman stands for the principles that all Republicans should share: smaller government, lower taxes, strong national defense, and a commitment to individual liberty.


Political parties must stand for something. When Republicans were in the wilderness in the late 1970s, Ronald Reagan knew that the doctrine of "blurring the lines" between parties was not an appropriate way to win elections. Unfortunately, the Republican Party today has decided to choose a candidate who more than blurs the lines, and there is no real difference between the Democrat and the Republican in this race. This is why Doug Hoffman is running on the Conservative Party's ticket.

Republicans and conservatives around the country are sending an important message to the Republican establishment in their outstanding grassroots support for Doug Hoffman: no more politics as usual.
