Conservatives uneasy with GOP choice for NY's 23rd Congressional seat

By Chris Ulanowski

Oswego, NY – Northern New York Republicans have named State Assemblywoman Dede Scozzafava their candidate in an upcoming special election to fill NY's 23rd Congressional seat. The choice isn't sitting well with right-leaning Republicans and Conservatives in New York and nationally. The main argument against her is coming from one of the leading conservative blogs, Redstate. Erik Erickson runs the blog. He spoke to WRVO's Chris Ulanowski. ( recorded July 22, 2009)
