Scozzafava-ed again in New York?

Could history repeat itself in New York's 23rd district?

Doug Hoffman, the Conservative Party candidate who became the de facto GOP nominee in the special election there in November, isn't ruling out another third-party bid.

Hoffman is again seeking the GOP nomination, which he lost to Dede Scozzafava last time. But state Conservative Party Chairman Mike Long has put out word that he will back Hoffman regardless of whether Hoffman wins the Republican ballot line.

And Hoffman isn't discouraging such talk.

“That’s not even a consideration. I will definitely run as a Republican and a Conservative,” Hoffman told the Albany Times-Union.

Hoffman added: “There’s no question that I’m going to be the Republican and Conservative, on both ballots, in November. We’re confident in that.”
