Tea Partying Hearty

Hot Air » Blog Archive » Waterloo: Obama approval at 47 in new NBC poll, tea party more popular than Dems or GOP
For the first time, Obama’s overall job approval rating has fallen below 50 percent (to 47 percent). In addition, for the first time since Sept. 2007, a plurality (45 percent) sees the Democratic […]



Wouldn’t This Be A Kick In the Ass?

Owens-Hoffman Race Tightens: NY-23 Election Will Depend On Absentee Ballots
ALBANY, N.Y. — The special election last week for the 23rd Congressional District seat in New York may not be over after all.
Though Conservative candidate Doug Hoffman conceded and Democrat Bill Owens was sworn into Congress last week, the routine recanvassing of votes shows Owens’ lead […]



Man, What A Night!

Intrade Prediction Markets
Holy Moley! It looks as if this blowout is going to be even bigger than I thought! Corzine’s stock at Intrade has collapsed over the last hour from 50+ to 7. And commenters at various blogs are spreading rumors that some venues are getting ready to call the race for […]



Um…

The Other McCain: NY23: Visit to a Watertown precinct
UPDATE: Dave Weigel has a report on a Christian conservative door-to-door canvassing operation. BTW, this district has been overdone in terms of phone operations. People working on Hoffman’s live phone banks have told me that many voters, after being bombarded by robocalls, are very irritable about getting […]



Looking At NY-23 - Final Predictions and a Few Caveats

I have repeatedly said that Doug Hoffman will crushingly defeat his Democrat opponent, Bill Owens, in NY-23.
Others have laughed at that prediciton, including Allahpundit, who is pushing polls he prefers, rather than looking at the situation on the ground.
My reasoning: This is a GOP district. That it voted for Obama last year with […]



Lowry Brushes His Teeth

Aren’t Civil Wars Fun? - Rich Lowry - The Corner on National Review Online
What is happening in NY-23 is a product of how bad Scozzafava is
More of the usual bullshit from NRO tool Lowry, who, as usual, has no clue what something like NY-23 is all about. It isn’t about Soccafava’s “noxiousness” as much […]



The Rare and Coveted Iowahawk Endorsement…

Goes to this guy:



Big Guns Onto the Field

Fred Thompson is rolling out an ad for Doug Hoffman in the final week of the NY-23 race. You can view it here.



At NRO, K-LO Endorses Hoffman!

Campaigns & Integrity by Kathryn Jean Lopez on National Review Online
I do not live in New York’s 23rd congressional district, and I’ve never hiked the Adirondacks, which run through it. I’ve never met Doug Hoffman, who is running for Congress there, and hadn’t heard his name until fairly recently. But he’s my guy this November. […]



Conservatives Are Winners!

The Club For Growth - http://www.clubforgrowth.org
Washington - A poll released today by the Club for Growth shows Conservative Party candidate Doug Hoffman surging into the lead in the special election in New York’s 23rd congressional district to replace John McHugh, the former congressman who recently became Secretary of the Army.
The poll of 300 likely voters, […]



The Battle for the Soul of the GOP

The American Spectator : AmSpecBlog : NY-23 EXCLUSIVE PROFILE: Conservative Doug Hoffman: ‘Citizen Who’sHad Enough’
Stacy McCain has an excellent primer on the Conservative Party congressional candidate who is leading the way in the project to save the GOP from its own worst instincts.



The Dirty Little Secret

The FRC vs. the GOP - Ramesh Ponnuru - The Corner on National Review Online
I disagree with Perkins on a few other matters as well. It is a misreading of the 2006 and 2008 elections to suggest that they show the folly of trying out “new ideas” (what new ideas were tried?). And a political […]



Just Planning Ahead

Well, not really planning, because I can’t say I have any plans right this minute. But, to be on the safe side, I have gone ahead and registered:
AmericanConservativeParty.us
AmericanConservativeParty.com
AmericanConservativeParty.org
AmericanConservativeParty.info
Just seems like a prudent move to me at the moment.
UPDATE: Bare-bones web site for The American Conservative Party is here.
