Scozzafava Enters Crosshairs of RINO Hunters
What happens when you pretend to be a Republican and then ruin everything for Republicans by endorsing a Democrat?
“Dede Scozzafava, the Republican nominee who issued an election eve endorsement of Democrat Bill Owens in the Nov. 3 New York special election, will meet with Assembly Minority Leader Brian Kolb Monday to discuss whether she will be stripped of her Assembly leadership position.”
“POLITICO has learned that Kolb will announce after the face-to-face meeting whether Scozzafava, the Minority Leader Pro Tempore, will remain as the GOP floor leader.”
“Fundamentally my members are very disappointed with her endorsement of Bill Owens and aiding him in helping achieve the Nancy Pelosi health care plan in Washington,” Kolb said.”
Hardly a surprise, considering that the Democrat candidate Scozzafava endorsed (Bill Owens) broke FOUR campaign promises within ONE hour of taking office…
“Owens indicated in a press release that he was now in favor of the [Pelosi/ObamaCare] bill in direct contrast to his earlier position during his campaign.”
“During his campaign for Congress, Mr. Owens assured voters that he felt the public option had no place in the health care reform bill. Contrary to that position, Mr. Owens now indicates that he intends to vote in favor of the bill even though it now contains a public option.”
“Owens also promised to vote against cutting Medicare benefits, taxing health care benefits, and increased taxes on the middle class. All of those are “features of the House bill.”
Dede Scozzafava was rejected by conservatives because it was obvious that her election would ultimately provide support for Nancy Pelosi and ObamaCare.
Her endorsement of Bill Owens proved every suspicion about her was correct and in the end, she was able to help the Pelosi/Obama agenda and further their cause.
In the future, maybe the GOP should avoid candidates endorsed by the Daily KOS.
