Close. To me he looks more like an extra from Zombieland.

I thought of him of as a Steve Forbes without the facial scarring.

He reminds me of what would happen if the Visitors gave Stephen Hawking their 'serum' to help him walk again.
Although he does bear an uncanny resembalnce to Buscemi...hmmm.

Steve Forbes! Yes! Good one.

This is great! Of course, Buscemi is very charismatic in his geeky, nebbish way. Hoffman is just a creepy tool. But yes, if Hoffman were ever of enough consequence to have a movie made of him, Buscemi is the natural pick to play him. Good eye!

Now I'm really creeped out because Doug Hoffman looks really familiar to me. Like I've met him somewhere. I won't sleep well tonight. Thanks Doug.

What an insult to Steve Buscemi!

I just laugh that the first official candidate of the new Conservative Republicans of America Party lost their first election in a Republican gerrymandered district.

Very creepy!! I think that guy could be in movies, too! It worries that someone like that would be telling women what to do with their bodies.... ewwwwww!!!

The Right insists (quail, saracuda ad nauseum) on fielding out-of-depth candidates who fit visual or ideological ideals- their folks will vote for them anyway as in their world of institutional nepotism they see the equivilent every where they look their entire lives.

ya jus gets use to it ...

AUWE

Yes you're right at least that Republican lost. I have to say the pictures were my lol for the day. Sorry about the whole name thing.

Doesn't Stephen Hawking have enough trouble without being compared to the darling of the Bat **** Teabagger party???? =o)

Occularnervosa: Good point! And a good laugh, thanks.

Yesirree, Republicans. A GOP three state off-year election sweep sure makes the pounding you took last year look feeble...

No, not Buscemi, I love Buscemi. That smile is truly creepy.

He reminds me of my 5th grade math teacher, a pederast but a nice man.

i'd say Doug paranoia, Doug has a longer face. I reckon from a different angle they wouldn't look alike at all!

Except Steve Buscemi is awesome and Doug Hoffman is atrocious.

ha! I see it. Although it's a discredit to Steve Buscemi.

I just saw that Hoffman guy on video last nite for the first time. Dear god, this is the best the Repubs could rustle up in a diehard Repub district to run for the seat when they wanted to oust Scozzafava? He was practically incoherent and had the charisma of a doorknob. They must have taken that term "safe seat" a bit too much too heart. (Check out The Daily Show's round up on that and other election results that was aired last nite - quite funny about the spinmeisters.)

Yeah, except there's actual life behind Steve's eyes. Doug, not so much.

As a fellow Doug, I feel your pain and dread.

Rated.

I agree, Aric. Not only that, but when he talks, it's like it's not him talking but rather, I dunno, Dick Armey or someone controlling his vocal cords from some other location. It's creepy.

That's exactly it! I was trying to figure out why he was so creepy, and it's because every time I hear him talk, it's like he first has to listen to what the Masters say in his hidden earpiece. Or maybe he's receiving commands from the Moon and there's that 2-second speed of light delay.
Hmmm... He could even be reptilian beneath that cheap Steve Buscemi mask.
