Too best honest I'm surprised she's running as a Conservative. The day after the National Republican Congressional Committee announced a negative advertising blitz against her potential Democratic opponent, state Sen. Darrel Aubertine, Scozzafava warned national party leaders to stay out of the race.
“I don’t appreciate what they’re doing right now — in fact, I denounce what they’re doing right now,” she said.She is definitely a breath of fresh air in the GOP, and I think her political policies lie more along as an Independent than a Conservative or a Democrat. She's more erratic than a Libertarian and seems to be too fiscally conservative to be a Blue Dog.
The Democrats had tried to match Scozzafava's distinctive political agenda by choosing NY State Senator Darrel Aubertine, a conservative-minded Democrat. But he announced late Thursday that he would not pursue the nomination.
Rep. Tom Reynolds (R-N.Y.), who headed the NRCC for two election cycles, stated Scozzafava's political philosophy the best: “Dede Scozzafava is a ‘what you see is what you get’ candidate.”
...I'm interested to see how constituents will react to such a rare politician running for office.
