Dear GOP - listen to the people
Peoples Press Collective —

Dislocation
Drumwaster's Rants —
... Now, in these examples, Lieberman won, and Hoffman, by some measures, is leading in NY-23.

Now, with star endorsements from Palin et al, one poll has Hoffman leading with 31%, Owens at 27% and Scozzafava at 20%. ...

... at least somewhat toward Owens - but if Hoffman is above 50%, it doesn't matter. Moreover, PPP finds that Hoffman is winning among Independents 52%-30%, and is even receiving 21% of the Democratic vote. PPP emphasized that there were no significant differences in the numbers at any point over the course of the weekend. Of course, this is only one poll, and Siena and DailyKos/Research2000 were showing a much tighter race than PPP was showing before Scozzafava's withdrawal (see all NY23 polls here ). If Siena and R2000 have the correct partisan breakdown (and its worth ...
