But your analysis is right on the mark.
If Markey pulls in another truly weak quarter, someone’s probably going to step in.
try out being a Democrat for more than 20 minutes, and seeing how that goes.
he’s a decent guy. I’m sorry to see him go: I always liked Don Quiote.
It’s brutal to put yourself out there – people like me keep taking shots at you.
At times during the debates last year, Eidsness appeared to be the most rational and intelligent candidate of the bunch. But when you start changing party affiliations willy-nilly, it’s hard for people to really take you serious anymore.
There was only one debate, I thought.
to seeing him get destroyed at the caucuses.
He never struck me as…shall we say…principled. And he got attacked for it, but he never seemed to understand why. Maybe now he does, and that’s part of the reason why he dropped out. The question is, now that he’s no longer a candidate, will he stay a Democrat?
He’ll call himself an “Independent” (the technical term is “unaffiliated”) and vote GOP as he always has.
Before he excised it from his campaign website, Eric Eidsness waxed prolific about all the wrongs that had been done to him under Reagan by Democrats. He repeated the phrase “Eastern liberal elites” and used a lot of other predictable stereotypes.
He’s got a deep hatred of the party he temporarily adopted, which is what made his run so farcical. He won’t be a registered Democrat next election. I’m not sure he even bothered to re-register this time.
When I was campaigning for Secretary of State, I met Eric. He is very intelligent and was a good candidate. He is an asset to the party, and I hope he puts all of his effort and resources toward electing a Democrat in CD-4, even though he chose not to continue this time.
Because when it comes to politics, he’s so very green ….
This is the first smart move by his campaign, and should therefore increase Eidsness’ odds in the ‘Big Line’.
He should at least go from (18-1) to (OFF) w/ an up arrow.
Agreed–Eidsness should move up on The Big Line now.
“The hand writing is on the wall and I see it is not my time to be elected to national office to represent (Colorado’s 4th Congressional District),”<--why did he say national office
Then he goes on to talk about rural areas. I have not been up to date on eastern slope politics but is anything opening up out there that the Salazars could do a little king making on?
Possibly just the Larry Craig paradigm shift in action
slipped right by me.
but this news really makes my day!!!
No primary in CD4 is by far the best scenario.
I said once before on here that there are some districts where the discussions and debates that happen in a primary are very useful. CD4 is not one of them.
This is a very expensive district for both parties, and now both parties can focus all their dollars towards one candidate and not have to wait til August to do so.
this race is over, MM easily beats an unknown now that 2 dems with name I.d. are gone…..
