The Code Pink of the Republican Party

Amendment 62 was voted down by a large margin, again, in a 1.1 million to 474,000 tally. When will the idealogues of Colorado Right to Life figure out that all they do is cost conservatives elections?  Ouch! That’s forty points. Well at least they fought the good fight right? Well if electing Bennet is the good fight in their minds than yes. Approximately twice as many people voted for the Republican AG compared to 62 supporters.

The abortion issue is such a complicated and unwinnable issue for either party and should not be a defining issue of our conservative movement.  I am pro-life, however I do not attempt to force those views upon others by using government policies.

Why can’t we stick to no tax payer money funding and focus on all the other issues our nation is facing?  Because CRTL seeks power at any cost and the left loves to let them hang the Republican party every election.

Ken Buck, running for U.S. Senator, received 20,000 votes less than Scott Gessler a rather unknown secretary of state candidate. Buck received over 100,000 less votes than John Suthers in the AG race.  You may ask yourselves what happened, but let’s face it the Democrats are extremely efficient at smearing Republicans and misleading the public.

These are not GOP turnout issues they are the results of a deceitful misleading media campaign against Buck. The core message of the ads was that Buck was “too extreme for Colorado.” We were led to believe th major example of Buck’s

extremism was his pro-life stance.  How many votes would

have Buck retained/gained if amendment 62 issues were not used against him?

The sad thing is this senate race should not have even been about abortion, but thanks to the disappointing mindset of a small group of narrow thinkers it was front and center. How many more elections are the RTLers willing to lose so their overly intrusive beliefs can continue to be shot down at a margin of forty points?  

They need to realize that their wanting to regulate birth control has led to a pro partial birth and pro tax payer funded abortion candidate being elected senator. Hope you are happy our little conservative code pinkers, because of your extreme backwards views we are stuck with six more years of misery. In 2012 and years to come do us all a favor and leave your crap off of the ballot and give conservatives a chance to defeat the dangerous left.
