Ken Buck, COVIDiot To His Last Maskless Breath

Colorado GOP chairman/Rep. Ken Buck released an extended-length fundraising video for online consumption yesterday, and there’s no need to expound too much on the 2 minutes and 40 some-odd seconds in which Buck drones on predictably about his love for freedom and hatred of bad Washington, D.C. “others” (allegedly) in both parties–but we wanted to […]

Cory Gardner Enters the Pantheon of Dumbassery

When Republican Cory Gardner was running for the U.S. Senate against incumbent Democratic Sen. Mark Udall in 2014, his campaign came up with a couple of memorable — if completely disingenuous — television ads that presented the two-term Congressman as a cherubic ball of bipartisan ambition. Gardner’s 2020 Senate re-election ads have been what we […]

Trump Knowingly Lied to Americans About COVID for Months

Indefatigable journalist Bob Woodward (yes, THAT Bob Woodward) is reporting ahead of the release of a new book that President Trump knew full well — from day one — about the dangers of the coronavirus pandemic BUT INTENTIONALLY DOWNPLAYED THE THREAT TO AMERICANS. As The Washington Post explains (we’re excerpting a bit more than we […]

Written Off: Mitch McConnell Stiffs Cory Gardner Again

Colorado Public Radio’s Caitlyn Kim reports on the “skinny” coronavirus relief package unveiled by the Republican U.S. Senate majority yesterday–which, after months of delays and promises from Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and Sen. Cory Gardner alike, contains much, much less relief than the American economy needs: The bill, titled Delivering Immediate Relief to America’s Families, […]

ATTN GOP: You Are Not Running Against Bernie & Romanoff

During the Democratic presidential primary, Republicans from President Donald Trump on down made no effort to conceal their desire to run against Sen. Bernie Sanders in the 2020 general elections–the theory, possibly with merit as Democrats will debate among themselves for evermore, being that Sanders’ hard-left platform would frighten American voters who were disgusted by […]

Trump Campaign is Running on Fumes

As The New York Times reported on Monday, the re-election campaign for President Trump has burned through whatever cash advantage it might have had over Democrat Joe Biden, whose campaign raised a staggering $364 million IN AUGUST ALONE. The Trump campaign has still not disclosed its fundraising numbers for August. According to the Times, Trump’s […]

Take Trump’s Advice? Jena Griswold Says She’ll Lock You Both Up

As the Denver Post’s David Migoya reports, Colorado Secretary of State Jena Griswold responded with emphasis to last week’s suggestion by President Donald Trump that voters in North Carolina cast both mail and in-person ballots, meaning vote twice, which is in case you didn’t already know this is a crime everywhere including in Colorado: Colorado […]

“Q*Bert’s” Aspen Fundraiser Busted For Willful COVIDiocy

As the Glenwood Springs Post-Independent reported Friday, a recent fundraiser in Pitkin County for Republican CD-3 train wreck nominee Lauren Boebert did not obey the county’s required pandemic safety protocols, even though Boebert’s campaign had agreed to them in advance of the event: Prior to the Aug. 31 event at a home off Cemetery Lane […]

Labor Day Weekend Open Thread

It’s Official: “Q*Bert” Doesn’t Want To Debate

Colorado Public Radio reports on two more debates in Colorado’s red-hot Third Congressional District race that aren’t happening, and once you sort through the back-and-forth it’s clear why: because Republican candidate Lauren Boebert doesn’t want them to happen. “We challenged Lauren to a debate to be hosted by the Pueblo Chieftain and a forum hosted […]

Trump Struggles to Contain Fallout from Military Remarks

As POLITICO reports, President Trump is desperately trying to minimize the damage from a blockbuster story in “The Atlantic” on Thursday (comments that have been independently verified by The Washington Post): President Donald Trump and his aides scrambled Friday to contain the fallout from reports that he made denigrating remarks about U.S. service members and […]

What Would You Like My Opinion to be Today?

Republican Sen. Cory Gardner continues to trail Democrat John Hickenlooper in the polls with two months to go until Election Day. According to new data from Morning Consult, Hickenlooper maintains a 9-point lead over Gardner, with an astounding 29-point advantage among Independent/Unaffiliated voters. Gardner’s well-worn strategy of trying to be all things to all people […]

Yes, The Magic Fairy Candle Folks Are COVIDiots Too

Although the opposition to public health measures to control the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic has proven to be an overwhelmingly conservative Republican affair in terms of political affiliation, as the Boulder Daily Camera’s Kelsey Hammon reports, there is that peculiar phenomenon wherein the irrational fringes of American society on both wings of the political […]

Cory Gardner Likes Talking Secession, Sometimes

We took note last week of an interview of Sen. Cory Gardner by CBS4’s Shaun Boyd, in which Gardner cited the failed 2013 secession movement by 11 rural Colorado counties as evidence of a “silent majority” that would rise up to help him beat John Hickenlooper in the November elections. It’s a head-scratching claim to […]

Support “Law and Order?” Shut Down Bandimere Speedway

Denver7 follows up on Tuesday night’s disturbingly large “Stop the COVID Chaos” rally, headlined by GOP House Minority Leader Patrick Neville and fringe-right columnist Michelle Malkin and drew thousands of “anti-maskers” to Jefferson County’s Bandimere Speedway near Morrison: Video of the event left some people asking if the rally put people at risk. It showed […]

Hickenlooper or Gardner…and by How Much?

We haven’t asked readers this question since early July, when the consensus seemed to be that Democrat John Hickenlooper is headed for a comfortable victory over Republican Cory Gardner in November. What say you now, Polsters? Who is going to win Colorado’s marquee race? Senator Cory Gardner or former Governor John Hickenlooper? As always, we […]

President Trump Tells NC Voters To Commit Election Fraud

ABC News reports–and seriously, frontal disclaimer, don’t try it: In the battleground state of North Carolina Wednesday, Trump suggested to supporters that they should attempt to vote twice — first by mail and then in person. “They will vote and then they are going to have to check their vote by going to the poll […]

“Yosemite Samantha” Leaves Gardner High, Dry at Club 20

Yesterday, Sen. Cory Gardner once again complained about the decision by former Gov. John Hickenlooper to skip the Club 20 annual conference debates, which as we’ve discussed at length in this space have faded from prominence in recent years due to stilted politics and equally antiquated execution in the digital campaign era: It’s nothing new, […]

Colorado Republicans: Welcome to Thunderdome!

The Colorado Republican Party is going all-in on President Trump’s new narrative that everything you know and love has been destroyed because of Joe Biden and the Democrats. “Small businesses are being burned to the ground,” says a Colorado Republican Committee email. “Homes are under siege. Families are in danger.” Colorado Republicans are absolutely insisting that “this […]

Big Buy: DMB Snaps Up $1.8 Million In CD-3 Airtime

A press release from the surging Diane Mitsch Bush for Congress campaign marks the next step in her increasingly determined bid to win Colorado’s Third Congressional District: a TV ad buy that should saturate media in this mostly rural and small media market district: Today, candidate for Colorado’s Third Congressional District Diane Mitsch Bush announced […]

Senate Republicans Still Spending…In Other States

We noted in early August that the main Senate Super PAC — Senate Leadership Fund — was spending heavily in several states OTHER than Colorado, which was a bad sign for the re-election hopes of Colorado Sen. Cory Gardner (R-Yuma). On Tuesday, Senate Republicans announced another big television ad blitz. Once again, Colorado is not […]

TUESDAY TUESDAY TUESDAY: “COVID Chaos,” Aptly Named

Photo by CD-7 GOP candidate Casper Stockham Photo by Randy Corporon WEDNESDAY UPDATE: Pretty close to an epidemiological worst-case scenario, reports Denver7: Thousands of supporters gathered at Bandimere speedway on Tuesday night, though they did not gather to watch racing. This, in many attendees’ words, was a peaceful protest. The Stop the COVID Chaos Rally […]
