Troubling News From New York 23

Newt, in his Newt Gingrich Letter, November 4, 2009, Vol. 4, No. 44, had this to say about the New York CD 23:
 
"Troubling News From New York 23
 
"The news wasn't all good last night.

"Both conservative activists and Republican leaders need to think long and hard about the only bad result of the night in New York's 23rd congressional district.

"The Democrat beat the conservative candidate 49 percent to 44 percent, with the Republican getting only 5%.

"Conservatives can take comfort in having driven a liberal Republican out of the race. But everyone on our side has to be troubled that a Republican seat went to a Democrat and Speaker Pelosi is one vote stronger because of our division."

The Conservative would have done better, even possibly been the victor, if the liberal Republican (anointed by the Republicans as their best choice) had not endorsed her Dem soul mate. The part that bothers me is that the Repubs could endorse her again in the future.

The Conservatives are simply attempting to hold up the principles and values of those who love America more than life.
