At Least They Spelled His Name Right

It’s that time of the year in Colorado when politicians don funny-looking shirts and mingle at cocktail parties in support of the Denver Rustlers at the Colorado State Fair in Pueblo. If you’ve been browsing social media sites lately, you’ve no doubt seen seen the photos.

Republican Senate candidate Joe O’Dea is among the candidates and elected officials in Pueblo this week. As Pols readers know, O’Dea is relatively new to Colorado politics and is not a well-known face, apparently even to the entrenched political types who wrangle people to Pueblo for Denver Rustlers. We caught a glimpse of O’Dea’s name tag in one of the many photos floating around online, and, well, it’s a little embarrassing.

Good luck on your campaign for the U.S. House of Representatives, Joe!
