Well, well, well… it just got interesting! The right thing has finally occured. Scozzafava has read the tea leaves (finally!) and dropped out. This should have happened last week and I wonder if she waited to the very last moment to finally make the announcement.

Anywhoo, with her support base having completely collapsed (other than Newt - still weird), this was the right decision.

redneck_hippie Saturday, October 31st at 11:10AM EDT (link)That puts her squarely in the camp of present voters of both parties. How very Huckabee of her. And yes, you can put Romney in there too if it makes you feel better.
As Jaded so aptly put it, WE WON.

ACtually, now that i think about it
redtillimdead Saturday, October 31st at 11:10AM EDT (link)Its kind of disappointing. Now Hoffman will win a two way race, and not a three way. Makes victory…less sweet.
PPP tweeted-
“With about 200 interviews down we had Hoffman 45 Owens 26 Scozzafava 17…her withdrawal will just make it that much easier for Hoffman”
Kinda sucks for them, their poll is garbage now.
