In case you weren’t absolutely convinced that NY-23 congressional Republican candidate Dede Scozzafava has becomed totally detached from reality, the location she chose for today’s photo-op will erase your remaining doubts.
Dave Weigel passes along a photo and this video that show where Scozzafava decided to hold the photo-op: directly in front of Doug Hoffman’s (the Conservative Party candidate) office. As Weigel says, “Little-known fact: There are lots of campaign workers, and signs, in such offices, ready to be deployed.”
Words fail. What is she thinking?
UPDATE:
Commenter JohnD points out that Scozzafava is damned by her own words:
This was almost as funny as a Monty Python sketch. On top of being surrounded by sign-bearing supporters of her opponent, she says, “the people should have to opportunity to have their questions answered.”
Then why did you call the cops, Dede?
