POLS UPDATE: News sources report Hickenlooper has picked Colorado State University-Pueblo President Joe Garcia as his running mate. Updates shortly.

Mayor Hickenlooper is holding an 11:15am press conference at his campaign headquarters to announce his choice for Lt. Governor.

Open speculation on who it will be?

            1. It’s just funny because the archetype makes so much sense but I don’t know if the person exists. That said, there are a slew of elected officials on the Western Slope (and Front Range, err, and Eastern Plains) that I’ve never heard of or thought about so you never know.

  1. non-pol, hispanic, educator, well known to in state students and alum

    I honestly thought it would be Bidlack or Scanlan and it is great to know that there are many, many qualified Dems who would be available.

    1. not that Garcia isn’t, but Hal is a really dynamic speaker, has military experience, and could pull Republicans that look at their own mess and decide the dems are better this time around.

      1. Bidlack is not a Spanish name. BOTH are equally qualified. (Bidlack is a friend of mine on FB) But Garcia delivers all of the anti tancredo crowd.

    2. And I don’t see the big deal about picking a woman.  We’ve had women Lts.  Hispanic from higher ed sphere outside Denver metro sounds like a very good choice for a Gubernatorial candidate from Denver.  

    1. If Hick gets on stage with Tancred’oh! or McPlagarist isn’t even a question….because he’ll make them look like the hysterical shrieking idiots they are, all the while looking cool, collected and he’ll crack a few jokes.

      Miss me much?

  2. http://www.news.colostate.edu/

    He obtained his law degree from Harvard Law School and his bachelor’s degree in business from the University of Colorado-Boulder.

    So, he is a “Boulder liberal” AND an “Ivy elitist”.

    Gov. Bill Owens appointed him again in 2001

    OMG! He is both a leftie and a rightie. Dan Maes was right about the one-worlders.

  3. watching “Tommy the Tanc” get his ass handed to him by a Latino would make the debate that much better.  Maybe Hick can be “busy” that day 🙂

        1. uncomfortable spewing bigotry but he certainly will have his ass handed to him. That will just make him a bigger hero to the crazies and more hateful to Hispanics. Even more votes not going to the R in both those demos.

          Tank will still be perfectly happy as he isn’t running because he wants or expects in his wildest dreams to be governor. Just wants to be another hate spewing wacko right celeb. We get Hick.  Tank gets tons of wacko street cred. It’s all good for Tank and Dems.  Wadhams sits in a dark corner crying.  

  4. Takes Hickenlooper out of being “Denver Centric”. Garcia brings in Southern Colorado support plus Pueblo money backers. He is articulate and savy
