Sorry, I can not provide the Sunday Denver Post link to “Colorado Votes” the section that shows how the Colorado Delegation voted last week. I did however scan it for perpetuity. The sub heading was “Sending U.S. Jobs Abroad” Sending U.S. Jobs Abroad For: 184/ Against: 242 Members Defeated a Democrat- ic bid to use […]
There’s a very interesting fight building in Congress around recently-introduced legislation that would tighten federal funding restrictions on abortion procedures. The bill, H.R. 3, is sponsored by over 170 mostly GOP members of Congress, including Colorado Rep. Mike Coffman, Doug Lamborn, and freshman Rep. Cory Gardner—Scott Tipton is not listed among the bill’s cosponsors, and […]
(This should turn out well. – promoted by Colorado Pols) Republicans and their K-Street constituents are meeting to plot their plans to thwart carbon and climate legislation, Politico is reporting: Top staff members for key House and Senate Republicans met in a closed-door session Tuesday with energy industry interests to work on strategy to handcuff […]
An update on the long-running battle over disclosure of chemicals used in hydraulic fracturing by the oil and gas industry, from the AP courtesy the Durango Herald: The fight over hydraulic fracturing fell into [Interior Secretary Ken] Salazar’s hands late last year after Republicans took control of the U.S. House of Representatives in November. The […]
Disclosure seems a no brainer, I mean what could the natural gas industry possibly have to hide? Mike Coffman is singing the tune of “no” for a mere $44,250. Flushing twice on the West Slope should dilute the toxins just fine. Congress isn’t going to regulate hydraulic fracturing any time soon. But the Department of […]
We have recently moved from Diana Degette’s district to Mike Coffman’s district. I opened up this mornings Centennial Citizen and read Mike Coffman’s article entitled: “It is time to address threat of radical Islam”: http://coloradocommunitynewspa… Holy cow! He would like to put all Muslim Americans in our military system through a “vigorous vetting process” – […]
Continuing the split started by Mark Udall and Michael Bennet in the Senate, the Colorado House delegation split their vote last night on the way to seeing the 2010 tax compromise passed unaltered. Representatives DeGette, Perlmutter and Lamborn voted No, while Reps Coffman, Polis, Markey, and Salazar voted Yea. The bill passed on a highly […]
Colorado Democratic US Representatives Perlmutter, Polis, DeGette, Markey, Salazar and Senators Bennet and Udall have not offered a single word in our defense regarding TSA’s body searches. Do they care about our rights or will they continue to Ignore Colorado Voters and treat the Constitution as just a piece of paper. Will Republican Rep’s Coffman […]
“Colorado Election 2010: The Final Word TM” — www.Colorado2010.com — will broadcast two hours of final debates and appearances of the campaign featuring… • Ken Buck (U.S. Senate – R) • Tom Tancredo (Governor – ACP) • Dan Maes (Governor – R) • Bernie Buescher (D) & Scott Gessler (R) (Secretary of State) • Stan […]
Over the years at Colorado Pols, we’ve been accused of being biased in a variety of directions and for a variety of reasons. But whatever your opinion or perception of our biases (or is that pronounce “bias-ees”?), you’ve got to admit that we rarely, if ever, have tried to argue that the sky isn’t blue […]
First off I’m moderately liberal (or as it’s described up here in Boulder, a right wing reactionary). But I try to be even-handed and fair when I lay out the choices in the state level races. Second, we Democrats have done a lousy job at the federal level. But at the state level I think […]
(I also think Tanc has a credible chance – promoted by DavidThi808) Vote Tom Tancredo. Protect the GOP’s power to reGerrymander the state. That’s the message I think that Dick Wadhams and Mike Coffman are sending to Republicans. They’ve released Republicans to vote for the only viable conservative and Republican candidate, Tancredo. At the same […]
Originally posted at http://thebobhatter.com/2010/1… As we all know many of the voters wait for the endorsements to start coming in to a candidate before they make their decision, or they make a impulse choice while they are driving to the voting booth. So after careful thinking, prayer, using the Magic 8 Ball, flipping coins, and […]
(The word of the day is “haruspicy” – promoted by Colorado Pols) With the election only a month away, and most mail ballots going out in the next couple of weeks, I guess it is time to make my predictions. I didn’t do as good with the primary results as I usually do, so now […]
All the prognosticators seem to agree that the US Senate race and the US House races in Districts 03, 04 and 07 are competitive and that the House races in Districts 01, 02, 05 and 06 are not. Is there something magical about the candidates in those districts that are not competitive that if only […]
September 3, 2010. Remember this day, folks, because in the coming years politicos, reporters, bloggers and everyone with an interest in Colorado politics will point back to this day to mark the moment when the Colorado Republican Party changed completely, and perhaps irrevocably. Whether or not this change will be remembered as something positive or […]
UPDATE #3: Maes makes it official on his Facebook page: —– UPDATE #2: FOX 31’s Eli Stokols: Despite a mass erosion of support among GOP leaders and grass roots activist, Republican Dan Maes has decided to stay in the Colorado governor’s race. The deadline for certifying the November ballot passes at 5 p.m. on Friday. […]
We’ve gotten a couple of emails on this subject, so we thought we’d put a list together and see if the Pols community could help us fill it out. Which top-ticket Republican candidates (all statewide and congressional seats) have endorsed GOP Gubernatorial candidate Dan Maes, and who has yet to offer their public support? REPUBLICAN […]
Colorado Canada Beer Baron Pete Coors has joined the ‘burgeoning list’ of GOP endorsers of Dan Maes. Republican gubernatorial candidate Dan Maes today added businessman Pete Coors to his burgeoning list of supporters. …Coors currently serves as chairman of the board for Molson Coors Brewing Company… The Coors endorsement builds on a long list of […]
Republican Cory Gardner has amazed us here at Colorado Pols for his uncanny ability to commit self-inflicted wounds seemingly every couple of weeks. Just a few weeks after cluelessly attending a fundraiser organized in part by a major lobbyist from British Petroleum, the Gardner campaign sent out an email to supporters touting this fundraiser: Honorable […]
( – promoted by Colorado Pols) In this week’s Denver Business Journal, Ed Sealover interviews both GOP candidates for the Treasurer’s race: J.J. Ament and Walker Stapleton. First, the good news: Both candidates give very good reasons why they believe Amendments 60 and 61, and Proposition 101 would be disastrous for Colorado. But the bad […]
Here it is — the first Colorado Pols mailbag! We’ve answered a handful of your questions after the jump; to submit your own question for a future mailbag, email askalva@coloradopols.com. Is it still true that blondes have more fun? Was it ever true? And if either answer is, “yes,” how does that apply to former […]
Or, as a clandestine lapel sticker at the State Republican Convention said, why “McJane is Failin”… 1. She has no credibility to go after Ken Buck. 2. Her campaign manager has made the race about HIM instead of HER. 3. She’s never actually been “in the fight” with us Conservatives (ala Schaffer/Coors, Holtzman/Beauprez, Armstrong/Coffman, Crank/Lamborn, […]
As the Colorado Independent’s Dave Williams reports, Rep. Mike Coffman is acting out some serious chutzpah. How do you make this u-turn without whiplash? U.S. Rep. Mike Coffman’s scathing attack on Interior Secretary Ken Salazar Wednesday at a House Natural Resources Committee oversight hearing on the Deepwater Horizon oil spill sounded a little like a […]
( – promoted by Colorado Pols) 8:36 – Finally found the press area and am set up! Pretty low key so far with most people sitting and waiting and some milling around. Lines at the county register booths are very short. Only two groups handing out lit on the way in was a union group […]
