She was not further left than the Democrat. She was a moderate, and the right wanted someone more like them. When they didn't get what they wanted in the primaries, they ran a third party candidate, and essentially gave the Democrats a seat they haven't held in about 150 years. Spin that however you want it, but that's what happened.

the woman was further left than the democrat that's why the conservatives ditched her...you miss the whole point here....

As for the Republican congresswoman, that would certainly be interesting. But it's an incredible longshot. Normally, members of congress don't move directly into a presidential candidacy.

You DO realize that she endorsed the Democrat because the Conservative party guy was so far to the right, don't you? And the point those other people were making was that she won the primary fair and square, but the far right didn't like it, so they ran a third party candidate, effectively going from Scozzafava (who was center-right) to Owens (who is center-left), and in the process losing a seat they'd held for almost 150 years. Your logic in thinking that is a GOOD thing for the Republicans is incomprehensible.

With conservative and the moderate Republicans fighting like babies during recess, no one will win!The NY congressonal race was an embarrassment. They had a candidate that was picked by the majority of the Republicans in that district, but that was not good enough for Palin, Rush, or a few other people. She did not pass their tests, and they pushed an independant candidate insulting every actual Republican in that district that duly voted. They lost a seat that had been in Republican hands for over a 100 years. What idiots fighting among themselves and losing a sure thing!!!!We need the Republicans to keep the Democrats in line, we need the Democrats to keep the Repubilcans in line. I vote for both sides, depending on the person. (You are a blooming sheep if you just vote straight party, and you are lazy). Republicans need to grow up, learn something and get their crap straight, or we all lose. Saying no to everything has worn thin. Offer something different, intelligent, and will help.

PLEASE, NOT PALIN. SHE KNOWS NOTHING ABOUT POLITICS, AS YOU COULD SEE IN HER INTERVIEWS LAST YEAR. SHE COULD BARELY ANSWER THE QUESTIONS SHE WAS ASKED!

Who ever it is they need to have a level head and strong convictions and we need someone that doesn't owes allegence to half the oilmen, bankers, medical interest, and all the other special interest in the country. This goes for both parties. Unfortunately I don't think anyone like this exist anymore. You have the Palin's, Limbaught, Edwards etc. They seem to be all just made up fluff that says one thing and does another. To bad most of the other Republicans and Democrates are similiar to Limbaugh and Edwards, condecending dope addicts, liars or womanizers that take themselves all to seriously while most of the country laughs at them behind their backs.

I nominate Michelle Bachman, currently Congresswoman from Minnesota.

A smarter version of Sarah Palin.

She's on CNN right now making minced meat of anchor John Roberts.

Citing chapter and verse of the socialized health care bill, when questioned. Falls back on the constitution. Hard to argue with that!

Keep an eye on this rising star!

Hey, all of you good ole, countryaz conservative Wilkes Republicans.
Why don't any of you ever mention Mitt Romney?
Is it because he is a Mormon and doesn't use the KJV bible?

If being gay is the worst thing Maddow has done, then liberals have nothing to worry about.
