Moveon.org endorses Hoffman?

Well, for everyone who ISN'T a left wing whack job, it sure sounds like one!

Of course, it start with the requiisite "teabagger" insult, but here's the rest.

...And a victory for an anti-reform teabagger just before the big health care votes will send exactly the wrong message to Democrats who are nervous about their own re-election....

Charlie Cook, one of the most respected political analysts in Washington, says that a Hoffman win would "shock Washington and force both parties to rethink their strategies."4  

It would dramatically strengthen the Sarah Palin wing of the Republican party. And as for the Democrats—remember how the teabaggers' town hall disruptions rattled conservative "Blue Dog" Democrats? Imagine how hard it'll be to pass progressive legislation if conservative Democrats spend the next year worrying that they may be unseated by people who think Medicare is socialism and President Obama isn't a U.S. citizen.

It would be funny if it wasn't so serious. But it is. Which is why Bill Clinton and others are working hard to raise the money Bill Owens needs to win. Local MoveOn members voted 77% to endorse Owens. But they need our help.

I think I've been inspired by this message, Time to send Hoffman more cash!

The "conservatives" backing

Submitted by classicliberal2 on Wed, 10/28/2009 - 18:40.

The "conservatives" backing Hoffman have aligned themselves with an imbecile who makes Sarah Palin seem intelligent by comparison. Every time he opens his mouth, he embarrasses himself. Most recently, Hoffman, who doesn't, in fact, live in the district he's trying to represent, turned up at an editorial board meeting of the local Watertown Daily Times, and demonstrated that he also knew nothing of the local issues in the district with a federal component, issues he would have to address if elected. Frustrated by the questioning, a "flustered and ill-at-ease" Hoffman angrily complained that he should have been given such questions beforehand.

No, I'm not making that up.

Hoffman has also proven unable to raise money in "his" district; he's had to depend entirely upon his personal wealth, and upon donors from outside New York.

...which sort of gets to what the race is all about. Hoffman is, like the teabagger "movement," a phony. An top-down invention of the tremendous wealth of the American right.

All well and good, but if the conservatives are going to invent a candidate like that, why didn't they invent one who isn't a complete idiot? It boggles the mind.

Wow, yet another liberal "endorsement" of Hoffman

Yup... they are really afraid of Doug Hoffman. They are reduced to cut-and-pasting of eachothers columns ( that above was NOT written by 'classicalliberal2' but cut-n-pasted from another blog. Sign of desperation.

The leftists are now in a frenzy over this ... see the insulting 'teabagger' phrase?  This is a disgusting a vile slur? And the lie about " invention of the tremendous wealth of the American right" ... What STUPID IRONY! Do you not know that SOROS has funded MoveOn and Media matters, and the result is that MOST OF YOUR TALKING POINTS ARE THE MANUFACTURED WORKS OF LEFTIST AGITPROP OPERATIVES WORKING FROM FUNDS GIVEN BY A BILLIONAIRE PLUTOCRAT.

Meanwhile, millions of flyover America PATRIOTS refuse to lie down and accept the leftist swill that you leftists want to push on USA. You have things exactly backwards. The Tea Party Patriot Movement is the ONE GENUINE GRASSROOTS MOVEMENT in USA this generation.

Hoffman's election would do more than even a Republican victory in Virginia and New Jersey to stall the Socialists. ObamaCare looked like a walk in the park at first, but its turning into Hitler invading Russia.

Every word of the above WAS written by classicliberal2, you f*cking maggot. You can make up your garbage about "fear" or "desperation" or whatever other invented characterization of my reaction to your pet moron makes you feel safe and warm at night, but you DON'T get to accuse me of plagiarism. I write my own copy, f*ck you very much.

Hey, Joe Biden's going back to the district election eve!

He's an expert on plagiarism. Maybe he can settle this dispute. He may need former UK Labour party head Neil Kinnock's ghostwriting, though.
