She would eat him alive.
It is quite an honor just to be considered to round out the nutjob ticket.
Actually, I think Lola is a strong choice and that she’d make a great Lt. Gov. Anyone else who says otherwise is wearing blinders.
Lola Spradley is a moderate pro-choice Republican who sponsored and voted for far more liberal TABOR “fixes” than Ref. C, which she then conveniently opposed. Just wait until the BB folks look through her liberal and very “establishment” votes. She is also very close to Mark Udall on Sierra Club issues–this will be VERY interesting.
Beauprez should snap her up first. She’d be a better balancer for him than for Holtzman…
Any sane person would bring balance to a Holtzman ticket. Thus the only two who come to mind as not bringing balance to a Holtzman ticket would be Tancredo or Musgrave.
Any sane person would bring something that is missing to a Holzman ticket, so two republicans who immediately come to mind as not qualified would be Tancredo and Musgrave.
As for Spradley, I cannot believe she is even entertaining the thought of running with this nutjob.
Oh, so now Holtzman is going to “officially” kick off his campaign? I thought he did that back in July. I bet he can double how many people came out for his last extravaganza and get over 100 people there. Perhaps he can fly supporters in from Eastern Europe. What an absolute loser!
I believe I was present for an address Holtzman made early last year when he turned to both Mike Coffman and Bob Beauprez and stated that when the time came for one of them to advance the other two would step aside and support that person 100%.
Earth to Marc, the time has come buddy!!!!!!
That zany Marc Holtzman! He’s made it exciting for me to regularly check coloradopols.com again.
Maybe he should check out: http://upi.com/NewsTrack/view.php?StoryID=20060123-103025-6545r
By the way, Lola looked hot on stage with Ken Salazar the other day.
So then who does Beauprez pick? I have heard Gigi or even Martinez, Mayor of Fort Collins. Thoughts, anyone?

Sorry about the triple post. It didn’t act as if was taking the “post.”
I like the word “triumvirate”… made me laugh.
hilarious – I was at marc’s RV tour kickoff and there were over 200 people there in Colorado Springs and about 250 at the Denver kickoff.
I’m not sure whether I’m supporting him or not yet, but he definately has some fans.
And like it or not, BB isn’t exactly doing well either. He’s about as exciting and energizing as richard simmons. It’s like the blind following the blind.
CD3, Martinez has jumped ship and is no longer supporting Whackjob…err, I mean Holtzman. But then, you knew who I meant.

You will have to excuse me, when I said one hundered I could have meant two. I figured I would guestimate since that doesn’t even come close to the 1500 or so people who were out at the BB event last week. Apples to oranges if you know what I mean.
This time Holtzman will get four hundred? Slammin!
doh!,
With all due respect, what is it you find so remarkable about Holtzman?
Does anyone else think Spradley would be the one running the show and Holtzman would serve merely as figurehead?
Ben – To be honest, I’m not blown away by either one of them. I think that’s the problem.
I don’t think that MH is energizing either, but I think it’s funny that everyone says BB is so much better, because he’s not.
I’ve met both men and I don’t think that either one of them is right for Colorado. I think Campbell said it best, we’ve got our B team out there right now.
I’m with you, Doh! I’m a Republican but far from happy with either Beauprez or Holtzman. Right now, it looks like the only “republican” in the race is Ritter. I see the abortion fanatics are slicing up him now. Not a good year for strong leadership, I guess.
In today’s political climate, a candidate is either labeled a “far right kook”, a “far left whacko”, or just a generalized “nutjob”. Are these labels unfair or should the voters expect psych evals on all candidates?
I’ve met and listened to both Beauprez and Holtzman, and although I don’t agree with either on every issue, I find neither to be ready for the nut house. (Yet)

Someone who calls Denver a “Rouge City” and files a false criminal complaint about his opponent stealing his fundraising list is a nut job.
Holtzman campaign theme is from Man of La Mancha
“I can hear the cuckoo singing in the cuckooberry tree”
“If he says that that’s a helmut, I suggest that you agree.”
“But he’ll find it isn’t golden and won’t make him very brave.”
“Well, at least he’ll find it useful if he ever needs a shave.”
I’ve always thought of Denver as more beige than rouge.
Beaupreznit, you are right and I guess that makes me a rogue.
Denver is a painted lady, I stand by rouge.
I’d call those examples political missteps, not crazy. (or “nutjob”)

Lola is a solid pick. With her sweeping up the moderates and rural votes, and Marc concentrating on the Springs and Metro region with his economic message, the balance becomes obvious. Add in Lola’s interest in health care, marry that to Marc’s immigration plank, and you’ve got a solid team.
Aside from the Beauprez seminar posters, everyone in my circle has started to seriously consider the possibility of a Marc & Lola ticket, and are liking it more and more.
As to Beauprez, he’ll most likely keep his pick under wraps until the convention – keeping everyone waiting is one of his best habits.
Live free or die, don’t you live in New Hampshire? Anyway, doesn’t matter. Lola Spradley made it clear to both candidates that this was the price for her endorsement. Guess Marc was the first to give in. He had to find some way to get support in the legislature since only one of them endorsed him…
The Beauprez staffers are the ones starting to come across as nutjobs with their nonstop posting the last few days.
I guess you have to do something during flights onboard the Citation X…
