Stapleton Won’t Say If He’d Sign Bills Making Abortion Illegal Or Harder To Get in Colorado

(Promoted by Colorado Pols) Colorado’s Republican candidate for governor won’t say if he’d sign legislation making abortions illegal or harder to get in Colorado. “I’m not going to get into a bunch of hypotheticals on a particular piece of legislation. Roe v. Wade is the law of the land. We’ll see what happens in future,” […]

Hurd, Evans Play Amnesia Games On Anti-Abortion Votes

The Colorado Sun’s Jesse Paul reports today on the issue of abortion as it affects competitive congressional races in our state–in particular the coming showdown between Democratic CO-03 once and future contender Adam Frisch and Grand Junction attorney Jeff “Bread Sandwich” Hurd. Hurd, as readers know, was recruited by Republican institutional unfriends of Boebert to […]

‘Pro-Life’ Republican Ganahl Would Take ‘Hard Look’ at Abortion Ban as Governor

(The many, many faces of Heidi Ganahl — Promoted by Colorado Pols) Indicating that she may be pro-choice when it comes to state policy on abortion, even though she is personally pro-life, the leading Republican candidate for governor in Colorado says may not sign an abortion-ban bill if it landed on her desk as governor, […]

And Now, the Flip Side of the Texas Abortion Ban

UPDATE: Witness this mealy-mouthed nonsense from Maine Sen. Susan Collins: Susan Collins, who voted for Kavanaugh after expressing confidence he wouldn’t overturn Roe, says after Texas case: “Of those I’ve voted to confirm, three voted with the majority and three voted with the minority. The one I voted against voted with the majority.” — Manu […]

Colo Republican Ted Harvey Cites Abortion As a Root Cause of Gun Massacres

(Huh? — Promoted by Colorado Pols) A former Colorado Republican lawmaker is arguing that it’s not guns but video games, music lyrics, divorces, and other issues that are the root cause of gun massacres, like the murders in El Paso, Texas, and Dayton, Ohio. “Something has drastically changed in our society,” Ted Harvey, who represented […]

Abortion Apocalypse Staved Off, No Thanks To Cory Gardner

The New York Times reports on the high-drama ruling by the U.S. Supreme Court yesterday temporarily blocking a highly restrictive anti-abortion law in Louisiana from going into effect, and revealing in this 5-4 decision the grave danger abortion rights are presently in–despite a persistent unwillingness by reporters locally and nationally to acknowledge this reality: The […]

Andrews Deleted Tweet About Stapleton Due To The “Hysteria” It Was Causing

(Smashing choice of words – Promoted by Colorado Pols) Former Colorado Senate President John Andrews created a mini-frenzy on Twitter yesterday, when he wrote that Walker Stapleton, Colorado’s Republican candidate for governor, told a luncheon crowd of 20 “faith leaders” that Stapleton would be “pro-life, pro-family, and pro-religious freedom.” “I saw this thing spiraling away […]

It Worked! Right-Wing Base Loves Stapleton For Appearing With Tancredo

(Remember, you’re not the only audience – Promoted by Colorado Pols) Political observers were left scratching their heads last week over why Walker Stapleton, who’s  Colorado’s Republican candidate for governor, would appear at a fundraising event with former Congressman Tom Tancredo, whose views on undocumented immigrants (kick them out), Mecca (bomb it), abortion (ban it) […]

Protesters at Walker Stapleton Campaign Event Say They Were the Target of a Nazi Slur

(Promoted by Colorado Pols) Reproductive rights activists are saying they were the target of a Nazi slur last month at a campaign event for Colorado’s Republican candidate for governor. The activists were protesting at the July 13 Walker Stapleton campaign event to raise awareness about threats to abortion rights following the recent announcement that President Trump would appoint Brett […]

Walker Stapleton: The Candidate Nobody is Afraid to Face

Walker Stapleton will almost certainly be the Republican nominee for Governor. This is almost certainly not great news for Colorado Republicans. We’re just days away from the June 26 Primary, and the overwhelming favorite for the GOP gubernatorial nomination is running a campaign that has Republican observers positively terrified. “I’m starting to worry that Bill […]

Anti-Abortion Group: Top GOP Candidates for Governor are Dodging Abortion Questions

(Promoted by Colorado Pols) Colorado Campaign for Life, a statewide anti-abortion group, says two leading Republican candidates for governor won’t answer specific questions about abortion. The silence from the two candidates, State Treasurer Walker Stapleton and former state lawmaker Victor Mitchell, has led Colorado Campaign for Life to accuse them of being “squishy” on their […]

A Leading GOP Candidate for Governor Says He Once Voted to Ban All Abortion in Colorado

(Promoted by Colorado Pols) A leading Republican candidate for governor told a talk radio host Saturday that he voted for a constitutional amendment that, if it hadn’t been overwhelmingly defeated by Colorado voters, would have banned all abortion, even for rape, and possibly some forms of birth control. Asked by KNUS 710-AM host Craig Silverman […]

The Best of the Worst is Still Pretty Bad

One month from tomorrow, a Northern Colorado Republican group will host a candidate forum featuring 15 people seeking the GOP nomination for Governor in 2026. We only recognize about half of the names advertised for the October 18th event, but they all have one thing in common… None of them are going to be the […]

Now Is a Good Time For the CO Springs Gazette To Stifle Itself

(Promoted by Colorado Pols) Colorado Republicans are saying they want to improve themselves, and a good way to move forward would be for the state’s top-money Republican, Phil Anschutz, to stifle the Colorado Springs Gazette’s impetuous and extremist editorial board, led by editor Wayne Laugesen. The Gazette board, and especially Laugesen, are a far-right drag […]

Maybe Joe O’Dea Can…Nope, Nevermind

UPDATE: As The Washington Post reports in a story about Georgia Senate candidate Herschel Walker: With polls showing Republican candidates underperforming the fundamentals in several key Senate races, Walker — for all his previous problems, which were many — hasn’t lagged as badly as some. And just two weeks ago, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell […]

New Poll: Polis Steady, Neuschwanger Outperforms Ganahl (!)

Global Strategy Group in collaboration with local liberal advocacy organization ProgressNow Colorado released new polling this week in two parts with some encouraging news for Democrats in Colorado–especially if Democrats are able to capitalize on the increasingly salient issue of abortion, where Republicans in Colorado have a longstanding and well-documented weakness they can no longer […]

Bremer Should Denounce Trump & Join Cheney at the Evil Doers Encampment Outside the Shrimpy GOP Tent

(Promoted by Colorado Pols) The Republican challenging U.S. Sen. Michael Bennet (D-CO) made me laugh Tuesday when he told Colorado Politics, “Republicans may be looking around saying, ‘OK, we really want to win,’ as opposed to looking at the litmus, purity test that often is the assembly.” Republicans are looking around and saying, ‘Ok we […]

Republican Claims of Gerrymandering Ring Hollow in Colorado

If you can’t beat ‘em, cheat ‘em! This is the Republican motto for the 2022 election, born out of “The Big Lie” that all good little Republican boys and girls are expected to endorse in order to avoid the wrath of Donald Trump and get around having to admit that the GOP lost both the […]

Boebert Makes “So-Called Candidates,” Like Gardner, Look Awful to Boyles

(Promoted by Colorado Pols) One funny side effect of congressional candidate Lauren Boebert’s rise to fame is that she makes other Republican Party candidates in Colorado look awful–at least in the eyes of conservative hardliners who must vote nonstop if Cory Gardner has a prayer to win in November. Don’t take it from me. Hear […]

Colorado Week in Review: 5/17/19

Your deliberately oversimplified glance at what happened in Colorado this week. CU Boulder joins UN agreement to promote climate action through sports Colorado releases app with info on 39K miles of trails Oprah Winfrey to address graduates at Colorado College How Colorado’s new law banning surprise out-of-network medical bills will work Should common consumption be […]

Why Can’t Colo Republicans Win? Bad Campaign Tactics? Or Bad on the Issues?

(Promoted by Colorado Pols) Colorado Republicans are standing chest-deep in blue water that crashed here in November. They’re soaking wet, the water isn’t receding, and they’re frustrated, trying to figure out what went wrong, so they can dry out and win again in their lifetimes. But pretty much all they’re talking about is changing their […]

After the wave: what you can do to fight back this week (November 13)

It was an historic night. One week ago today, Colorado struck back at the polls against Trump and the Republican takeover of Washington, D.C. Colorado’s congressional delegation has a Democratic majority again for the first time since 2010, helping progressives take back the U.S. House of Representatives. We elected the first openly LGBTQ man governor […]
