235: Disaster Capitalist
New York 23rd District, Doug Hoffman and GOP Infighting
The discussion turns to the 2009 special election in New York's 23rd congressional district, where Tea Party support for Doug Hoffman led to a Democratic victory in a traditionally Republican seat. The hosts criticize Dick Armey and Sarah Palin for ousting a "moderate" Republican (RINO) only to lose the seat, a move later criticized by Karl Rove.
