Rep. Chris Van Hollen, the chair of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, told MSNBC’s Ed Schultz today that a win for Conservative candidate Doug Hoffman in NY-23 would “spell big trouble.”
“If the Conservative Party candidate wins, it will just further embolden the right wing, the far right extremes in all these Republican primaries that are going on around the country, which will determine what happens in 2010,” Van Hollen said.

The DCCC has contributed $92,416 to Hoffman’s opponent, Democrat Bill Owens, according to The Washington Independent.
