Scozzafava drops out

If you've been following the NY 23 race (and who hasn't), you know that it's been a knock down dragout fight against the traditional, run a liberal RINO choice and a true conservative (I might even say Hoffman seems like a tea partyer). Today Scozzafava dropped out because Hoffman has pulled ahead, because the Republican establishment (all except Newt) had stopped paying her bills and because the outcry from conservatives across the country has boosted Hoffman's numbers greatly. Now the vote will no longer be split. Good, good news:

Republican Dede Scozzafava has suspended her bid in next Tuesday’s NY 23 special election, a huge development that dramatically shakes up the race. She did not endorse either of her two opponents -- Conservative party candidate Doug Hoffman or Democrat Bill Owens.
