In NY-23...

...the Republican Dede Scozzafava has endorsed the Democratic candidate, Bill Owens. Doug Hoffman, the Conservative candidate, is heavily favored to win on Intrade. (I predict that Owens will win due to the fact that Scozzafava's name will still be on the ballot.)

Either way, this race will have far-reaching consequences for the Republican Party and the nation as a whole. Again, only 20% of Americans identify with the Republican Party. How can splitting it further improve their chances at the ballot box?
