Taking The Hill

Doug Hoffman:  still a loser.  Since Republicans can never lose elections, it must have been stolen by ACORN.

No, seriously, that's his excuse. Dave Weigel has the goods:
As the very, very small chance of a late upset vanishes in NY-23, Conservative Party candidate Doug Hoffman is lashing out and accusing “ACORN, the unions and the Democratic Party” of tampering with the election.
Hoffman’s getting some brushback from local Republicans. George Williams, chairman of the Oswego County Republicans, says Hoffman’s wrong and says the party is “not going to take the blame because he didn’t hold his concession speech.” I was in the district in the run-up to the election, when Hoffman accused Democrats or ACORN of slashing a campaign worker’s tires; when that charge turned out to be baseless, ACORN spokesmen informed me that they had no volunteers in the district. While ACORN’s credibility has been challenged left and right lately, its very public implosion would seem to back that up.

This isn’t the sort of behavior that wins over a skeptical electorate looking at a possible rematch between Hoffman and Rep. Bill Owens (D-N.Y.).
But hey, who cares?  A Democrat can never win a fair election, they only steal it from Republicans.

That's the classy guy I'm sure the people of NY-23 want to represent them.
