re: #26 erraticsphinx

I have to say, that last tweet from Markos is on the money.

It is indeed. I’m not a fan of Scozzofava, but what happened to her was a purge. It’s telling that the one election on the East Coast the GOP is sure to win is the one where the candidate kept the social issues in the background. Bob McDonnell is going to win in Virginia by hitting economic issues and hitting them hard. He kept on message and stayed with issues where he had the advantage. That is the path GOP will have to take, should it wish to remain a national party. Hoffman by contrast, walks the path to failure. Even if he wins, conservatism will have lost.
