Ignore the facts, blame someone else, look anywhere but at your own failings. GOP all the way.
I’d be kind of pissed if my friend dissed me like that. Of course, I don’t know how good of friends Salazar and Entz are…
Republicans will stop endorsing Democrats for office once they realize it won’t get them anything but grief.
He did not endorse Salazar. He endorsed the republican in 2004. Basically, he put his love of money ahead of friendship and doing the right thing.
Maybe Entz should not have campaigned for Pete Coors in 2004. And maybe he should not have campaigned for a Republican in the CD3 race against John Salazar.
Entz has only himself to blame.
“Kettle. Hello, this is the pot.”

I’m surprised that Bill Berens hasn’t filed suit against Dianne Primavera, his former constituents for not voting for him, and the media for reporting his loss…
… until the next time he gets invited to a lobbyist-sponsored event and hits a hole in one.
Oh wait a minute: that won’t happen because (1) Berens is history and (2) Amendment 41 will put an end to those shenanigans.
I know he made some poor decisions on water and other issues that affected the the valley, and his campaign consisted of, “Vote for me, Schwartz is from Pitkin county”, but Entz has served Colorado in municipal to state offices for something like 100 years.
He gets high marks in my book, nothing but respect for a public servant of his stature.
Lew Entz is a good guy and a real gentleman. However, this is sour grapes on his part and he ought to keep it to himself. He’s had a long career as a public servant, and he should go out with dignity, not by blaming people from outside his party for not endorsing him.
Deeds speak louder than words, and what a decent person does at this point is congratulate his or her opoonent, then make a plea for consideration of the losing candidate’s positions. As in,
Because the “waaaah, I shouldn’t have lost thing” looks kind of ridiculous.

Served US Marine Corps
Alamosa County Commissioner – 1968 to ’82
State Rep – 1983 to ’98
State Senator – 2001 – ’06
Served his State and country well. I think he can be a little petulent at the end of his career.
You’ll be missed Lew.
He’s a good man. I’m sure it is very difficult for him to lose the race and he’s speaking in a moment of frustration. Yes, it doesn’t look dignified but I’ll forgive him because he gave the state a lot of years.
I think Lew underestimated the anti R backlash coming and didn’t work as hard to raise money early on. He had always enjoyed bipartisan support based on his moderate voting record and thought he’d be rewarded with loyalty based on this and his many his years of service. He was wrong.
“Money verses friendship, I guess.” Awwww gee Lew… I need a hanky.
If anyone “went south” it was Entz when he endorsed Pete Coors over Ken Salazar in 2004. After that numbskull move, why on earth did he expect Ken’s endorsement this time?
Nice try… Colorado Media Matters did an item on this back on October 6: Chieftain omitted Entz’s reported endorsement of Coors while reporting Entz unhappy about not getting Salazar endorsement
He placed his faith and political future in the hands of Trailhead, and as such, got what he had coming to him. Any word on how Bill Berens is dealing with his loss? Maybe working on his slice…..
Salazar stabs an old friend in the back for money and you call Entz a sore loser???
how many people show up on ColoradoPols and post shallow spin, with the apparent expectation that it will fool people. Perhaps in some other context besides a thread on a political blog where we just finished noting Entz’ endorsement of Pete Coors, that “stabbed an old friend for money” line would play; obviously Lew Entz thinks it will, or he wouldn’t have said it. But here, of all places, it really just sounds somewhere between “naive” and “obstinately ignorant”.
