Third Party gains ground in NY-23rd House ele
2009-09-29 10:01 AM PDT
Conservative Party candidate Doug Hoffman has received the endorsement of former Presidential candidate Fred Thompson (R-TN) and the conservative group Club for Growth. With my personal disdain for social conservatism aside this is certainly big for third parties. If a third party can gain a seat in a national election, it will certainly be a shot to the current two-party oligarchy occupying Washington.

The Conservative Party of New York was formed because of the view of the state Republican Party that they were too liberal and to be a counter to the Liberal Party of New York.

frankly ur lefties are just as dangerous as the righties. the end of our freedom is comin from both sides. they are the same and working to the same end. do some researcha an see who signed the North Americna Union. see who is takin away our rght to bear arms. who now has the right to arrest with out warrent an lock away without cause. who is no tryint to force national healthcare down the collective american throat. that is both parties agendas and they both are stealing freedom is the name of safety. in the words of benjamin franklin, "those who are willing to sacrifice freedom in the name of safety never deserved it in the first place." i agree. a third party would be an awesome thing. but be careful. it may be another trap to catch the moderates in the middle an in favor of niehter. we will have to watch their track record an see wat they do. maybe they are fo real. have a good one friend.
