On October 29, former New York Governor George Pataki, speaking at a Conservative Party dinner, endorsed Doug Hoffman for next week’s special U.S. House election, 23rd district. Pataki, a Republican, served as Governor 1995 through 2007. See this story.
If Doug Hoffman is campaigning as a fiscal conservative, he should repudiate Gov. Pataki’s endorsement. That would make news, too.
On the other hand, it is one of the first endorsements Hoffman has gotten from a New York resident.
Wow…doesn’t hurt that Hoffman is a third party dude, that also happens to be a millionaire…

Thanks, Lady Gaga. I was sort of on the fence about posting that story. It was disappointingly tame.
