Doug Hoffman, the Conservative Party candidate in NY-23, appeared today on the Glenn Beck show — and declared that Beck is a “mentor” of his, and that he’ll stay in touch with Beck if he’s elected:
HOFFMAN: I have good mentors here.
GLENN: Wait, wait. Wait, wait. Are they mentors that will show –
HOFFMAN: I’m talking about you, Glenn.
GLENN: Oh, okay. I was going to say all right, as long as they are standing out from the shadows. […]
HOFFMAN: No. Yeah, well, I’m going to keep in touch with people like you so I don’t get infected with that disease.
