While the national media busies itself with Republican indiscretions, in Colorado’s it’s a different story!
Second Colorado lawmaker now faces sexual harassment complaint
Thomas Cavaness stood in the back of a darkened room at a political campaign event one night in early 2012 when he felt someone reach over and grab his inner thigh near his crotch.
The hand belonged to Paul Rosenthal, then a state House candidate who is now in his third term as a Colorado lawmaker, according to a formal complaint Cavaness filed this week and obtained by The Denver Post. Rosenthal is the second state lawmaker in a week to face accusations of sexual harassment.
The same evening, Cavaness said Rosenthal touched the small of his back, letting his hand slip to his buttocks, and later tried to kiss him as he left.
Why can’t Democrats in Colorado keep their hands to themselves? I hope Colorado Pols gets to the bottom of this before they write any more blogs about what Cory Gardner will do about Roy Moore. Democrats have your own problems.

Throwing stones from your glass house. Forgetting that Republican Senators were also said to have committed sexual harassment. Though not yet named. You still stand with Trump who has multiple accusers of sexual harassment and assault.
Harassment is harassment. Someone with power over someone else has no business coming on sexually to them, especially at work or school. Democratic or Republican (or ????), male or female, straight or gay.
Right after our legislature gets its harassment consequences procedures figured out, they need to teach "Flirting 101", workplace professional conduct, and why consent can only happen between equals.
Moderatus —
looking forward to your similar positions when Republicans are accused. Because any hugs / patting / kissing being seen as harassment is not a Democrat / Republican thing or a male / female thing. In this case, I have a hard time seeing what "power" a candidate for office holds over a campaign organizer for a different campaign … but that will be a matter for investigation and consideration.
Sounds like we will be going into a Georgia Satellites inspired world:
