When somebody as liberal as DailyKos endorses the Republican, it’s time to take notice
So it’s official, I’m rooting for the Republican to win. As a congresswoman, she could either move even more to the left to properly represent her progressive-trending district and be a pain in the side of the GOP caucus (they have nothing like our Blue Dogs), or Democrats can field a real Democrat to challenge her in 2010.
Markos fears Hoffman, and rightly so. His brand of liberalism demands purity of socialist standards, and he has given his approval to Dede. Read his whole piece. It’s most enlightening.

I am a local DJ here in St. Lawrence County, NY. My wife's name is Melanie, and we have four children.
We have just heard that Mr. Hoffman will not participate in a forum before the election. Could you find out why?
Looking back through the timeline, I see that Owens has also declined a forum or two. And that since Hoffman has declined participation in the most recent, Owens has backed out as well.
I honestly don’t know why Hoffman declined, but I’d suggest you contact the campaign and find out, if you like.
