Reporting from Washington - For the moment, at least, the conservative insurgency in upstate New York can claim a victory.
The moderate Republican candidate in a special congressional election, Dede Scozzafava, dropped out of the race Saturday, increasing the chances that third-party candidate Doug Hoffman, the conservative favorite, will prevail in Tuesday's vote.
Scozzafava's surprise withdrawal three days before the election, citing a lack of funds, was a blow to the Republican Party establishment in Washington, which had dutifully lined up behind her even as Hoffman drew escalating support from the party rank-and-file.
