Doug Hoffman, the candidate who lost the NY-23 congressional election last year, remains a celebrity among national and local conservatives. “This happens to me simply going around the 23rd District, just so you’re clear on this,” he said.
Fresh from his election victory Tuesday, Bill Owens traveled to Washington, D.C., today where he was sworn into office shortly after 1 p.m. and embarked on a busy schedule that would see him welcomed at the White House and by top Democratic leaders in Congress.
Here’s aggregate video of how aggressively Fox News pushed for its horse in the NY-23 congressional race, Doug Hoffman – and how unceremoniously they dumped him (and all of us) when BILL OWENS won. var addthis_language = ‘en’;var addthis_options = ‘email, favorites, facebook, digg, delicious, myspace, google, reddit, live, more’; Congressman-elect Bill Owens successfully navigated waters far more turbulent than the St. Lawrence Seaway to secure a victory over Conservative candidate Doug Hoffman. Hoffman’s support from narcissistic new-mainstream-media blowhards Glenn Beck and Rush Limbaugh wasn’t enough to help him overcome voters’ desire for decency, common sense, and an actual knowledge of the district to be represented. [...] Congratulations to Democrat Bill Owens, who was victorious in the November 3 election for New York’s 23rd congressional district seat. var addthis_language = ‘en’;var addthis_options = ‘email, favorites, facebook, digg, delicious, myspace, google, reddit, live, more’; Before Scozzafava’s departure, the race was a dead heat between Mr. Owens and Hoffman. Though Scozzafava endorsed Owens, it’s not yet clear where her votes will go. But the stakes are pretty big. A Hoffman victory will be characterized as a big win for the conservative wing of the GOP – and rightfully so – but [...] Dede Scozzafava, who recently suspended her campaign as a Republican running for the open seat in New York’s 23rd Congressional District, has endorsed Democrat Bill Owens over his remaining challenger Doug Hoffman. Scozzafava said, “In Bill Owens, I see a sense of duty and integrity that will guide him beyond political partisanship. He will be [...] Republican candidate Dede Scozzafava has quit her campaign for New York’s 23rd district seat in the US Congress. The race is now left to Democrat Bill Owens and Conservative Doug Hoffman. Owens immediately received the backing of the Independence Party and of labor unions that had previously stayed out of the race or endorsed the [...] The following comments are mine only and don’t reflect those of other contributors to the Cazenovia Pilot. — Jim I would like to take a moment to provide my thoughts, for whatever they’re worth, on the upcoming elections in which we’ll choose representatives and officials for the Town of Cazenovia, Madison County, and New York’s 23rd [...] I watched this debate. Owens looked good, Scozzafava had solid local knowledge. Hoffman looked like a dolt, which I can’t imagine he actually is. Candidates for 23rd Congressional seat agree they won’t be swayed by money, from the Syracuse Post-Standard. var addthis_language = ‘en’;var addthis_options = ‘email, favorites, facebook, digg, delicious, myspace, google, reddit, live, more’; |
