mmmm, some mighy tasty axlerod you have there....Actually that's a highly republican district which hasn't been held by Democrats for 150 years or something. THAT is praiseworthy dontcha think?
Thanks for screwing that up so badly.
You are very fast with talking points aren't you? How does that happen Spike?It is actually a heavily republican district.

In this case Scozza was pro-gay marriage, pro-abortion, ACORN-friendly, big labor-backing, tax-and-spend radical in GOP clothing.

So you now are aware that your talking point statement is a lie aren't you?
But you said is was held by a repub for 150 years. Thats not true is it?I watch the news sometimes and pay attention.
No, actually it's a heavily republican district. Odds were way against Owens.
Scozza had mostly Republican views but disagreed with the party line on a few things. Uh oh.
The nomination of Scozzafava was orchestrated by two powerful liberal members of the local Republican Party organization, and was aided and abetted by several politically inexperienced local county leaders who failed to grasp the tactical significance of shunning the Conservative Party and did not fully understand the details of their nominee’s record, or her potential vulnerabilities.
On July 22nd, the Republican Party nominated Scozzafava, an Assemblywoman whose liberal views on many issues do not reflect the views of the majority of the district’s Republicans. This nomination was tainted by a breach of trust carried out by a key party insider, liberal Republican Assemblywoman Janet Duprey, who also serves as the chairman of the Clinton County Republican Committee.

So an independent coming within four points of the only other candidate, a demoncrat, is not significant?Dunno, conflicting reports on that now and the redistricting confuses things. It very well may not be true.
What we do know is that it's a highly Republican district and that the right really had to screw up to get a Dem elected there.
You just keep on thinking that.

You don't really understand what happened do you?No, a Dem winning against the odds in a heavily right wing district is certainly significant.
