Simple as that... If someone that physically offputting can almost win by pushing conservative principles, then a guy who brushes regularly could have definitely won.

He lost. So what? The Republican party officials who blithely promoted Scozzafava and their brothers in idiocy in Republican party posts around the country got a wake-up call. Pelosi can't get the message. Country Club Republicans are tone deaf, too. Country Club Republicans immediately scream that what happened to Scozzafava means the extreme right wing, the Huns, are on a roll. Hardly. There was a lot of daylight between Scozzafava and the rightward direction you would have to travel to reach moderate. Hoffman was a national Republican message, not the chosen-one. He lost. So what?

Scuzzyfavor, on the other hand, was an outright Democrat. As she later proved. And Owens might be a Blue Dog. (I'm not sure of that, but some have said it.) Seems to me that in NY-23, the second best candidate won. I mean, things could have been worse. Hoffman may well have been a less than ideal candidate, and not necessarily the best choice for 2010.

That one was as badly neglected. What about Ronald Reagan’s maxim: “Thou shalt not speak ill of any fellow Republican”? That one was as badly neglected.
