Conservatives in America, young and old, need to step up and realize what is happening in our great nation. The special election in New York's 23rd Congressional District is a smaller representation of what is happening to the Republican Party all across the country. Although this election may not seem to affect many of us directly, this may be the most pivotal election in the Conservative Movement.
There are many issues going on within this small election. There is the "dissolving" of the Republican Party, because some, like Sarah Palin, have decided to support the Conservative Party candidate Doug Hoffman, rather than the very liberal Republican Dede Scozzafava. Those who support Scozzafava, like former speaker Newt Gingrich, say that supporting a third-party candidate may weaken the Republican Party and make the nation susceptible to an even bigger Democratic majority in the next elections. This is unacceptable. Conservatives cannot support someone who consistently votes for higher taxes, who does not support the Right to Life, and has backed the likes of Nancy Pelosi. These are all things that Dede Scozzafava has done and needs to be held accountable for.
Since Doug Hoffman could not beat Scozzafava in the GOP primary, because there wasn't one, there is no reason to believe that he is not the best choice for the Republican ticket. I believe that if Hoffman can win as a Conservative over the RINO Scozzafava, we can see more Republicans realizing that we do not believe moderate or liberal positions are acceptable to take in order to "fit in" in Washington. This will will only be possible, however, if we as conservatives can support the candidates who stand for what is right rather than simply voting for the candidates we believe have the better chance to win.
We can see that many American's are having "buyer's remorse" for buying into the ridiculous ideas that President Obama and the Democratic majority in Congress are pushing upon the American people. This can be seen in the continuously decreasing approval rating for the President and for the new Obamacare system. This is the perfect time for Conservatives to stand up and show that responsibility, fiscally and morally, are what Americans need in order to improve our nation and to make the United States a land where men can come from nothing into something, without sticking their hands out for taxpayer money and without being taxed until they no longer have a chance. That is why I support Doug Hoffman fo NY-23.
