Calls it like he see’s it.
Hickenlooper has been getting some bad PR at least on the colopols, as he has been more moderate with enviornmental decisions than some on here would like.
Western Slope TPs pull no punches in dissing Scooter. Hated by those who know him best.
Are you saying Western Slope TPs,few of which have ever gone to a caucus, assembly, 3rd CD or had a one on one conversation with Scott know him best?
Come on. You know better. The few newsletters that make their way to my desk from TP and 9/12 groups only have one mission: Elect anyone that has never, ever held office before no matter what office and mouths their fringe views.
To come out and overcome the 28 point lead McInnis has over Maes in a primary and that’s the one that counts.
as I have noted before–but I think he does so at great expense and emerges somewhat damaged. I think he will do surprisingly poor in the geography that is allegedly his base–Mesa and Garfield Counties among that.
which was Western Slope TPs know Scott and that he is “Hated by those who know him best.”
And that is simply not true.
As for who comes in 1st or 2nd – I don’t think anyone will ultimately gives a hoot. Ken Salazar came in 2nd and went on to the US Senate and now is Secy of Interior. I don’t see any reference to his nomination in the news or anywhere else. But then selective memory is a convenient tool as a diversion.
You know as well as I do that Scott has to roll the dice and see whether the teabaggers are a “movement,” a “phenomenon,” or simply a “curiosity.”
I personally feel that they are the latter. But whatever they are, they don’t like Scott much.
Write them off either at your own peril (in the case of the Primary) or your own success (in the case of the General).
You’re a wise woman. You know damned well that you can’t do both. Scott either appeals to the extremists who drive primaries, or the middle who drives generals. I wouldn’t want to be in your shoes.
I think the big change may be that control has moved from the party leaders back out to the individuals. We had that in ’08 also when Obama beat Clinton. As such we may be seeing a cultural change.
If so, then Scott is in a world of hurt.
How is employing someone with no experience ever a good idea? Especially when they are responsible for an entire state.
You mean toilet paperers?
Oh, maybe you meant teabaggers? Call them what they are, no matter how they hate the name.
It took me a minute to figure out who Twitty was talking about in his first post.Teabaggers it is or Tea Party.
What purpose does this serve??
At least until it’s your candidate they’re trashing…
But apparently the political powers that be have spoken.
the same way they have anointed Jane Norton. But you don’t have to take it lying down, Beej! You should do everything you can to undermine McInnis in the eyes of conservative voters. He’s sure to change his position to try to win your vote …
Somebody said the United Nations, or US Chamber of Commerce, or some such, has endorsed Norton. That race is so over in its sequels.
Are you new around here? I’m pretty talkative.
Speaking of, where has Maes even been the last week or so? Haven’t seen a single update on the guy. Has he been spending this whole large amount of time raising money for an add?
Maes has no chance on Aug 10. Let me tell you why….
Except for Weld and El Paso Counties (size matters) all of the other larger counties have mail ballots. Maes has absolutely NO name recognition whatsoever….
This is a huge advantage for McInnis…that is because of the means of how we vote this August. For good or bad, people will vote for McInnis because at the very, very least…they have heard of him.
The same might go for Romanoff.
The polls show that Romanoff has really bad name ID. Outside of activist Democrats, most voters don’t even know who he is. You’d think his name ID would be a little better because of his time in the House, but it just goes to show how important TV ads have become; if you’re not on TV, you’re unknown.
I had not even thought of that but I do have to agree, I think that helps Bennet in the primary.
