Hoffman campaign racks up more Conservative cred

If you’re a movement conservative, Doug Hoffman has all the right people standing behind him. Gary Bauer, with the Campaign for Working Families, has endorsed Hoffman.

Here’s an excerpt of Bauer’s statement:

Today, I am proud to endorse Doug Hoffman for Congress. The decision to do so was made after considerable contemplation, but in the end it was an easy decision to make. Simply put Doug Hoffman is THE CONSERVATIVE candidate for Congress.

Unfortunately, the two main political parties have chosen nearly identical candidates, virtually indistinguishable on key issues. But Washington is not lacking for liberal politicians. What is in short supply on Capitol Hill these days is commonsense conservative values.

On Monday, I’ll report on this rift between the GOP and the conservative movement, which is clearly redefining the tenor of this special election.
