(Promoted by Colorado Pols) When Rep. Cory Gardner dumped his longstanding support of the Personhood amendment two weeks ago, reporters failed to tell us about Gardner's new position on abortion. It turns out, Gardner now holds the same abortion stance as Archbishop Charles Chaput, who left Denver for a Vatican post in Philadelphia in 2011. That's what […]
Despite his best efforts, Republican Senate candidate Cory Gardner just can't shake the Personhood issue; but it's not just Democrats who keep bringing it up. The following is an open letter, reprinted in its entirety, released via the Christian Newswire by Keith Mason of Personhood USA to Gardner, lamenting Gardner's recent reversal of support for the organization's namesake […]
FOX 31's Eli Stokols reports today: Extending marriage to gay and lesbian couples in Colorado would generate $50 million in spending to the state economy and $3.7 million in state and local tax revenue, according to a study released Thursday. The study from the Williams Institute, a national think tank at the UCLA School of […]
On Tuesday, we discussed the silly-season "challenge" by GOP Senate candidate Cory Gardner of incumbent Democratic Sen. Mark Udall to "oppose any ban on hydraulic fracturing" in Colorado. Gardner cited a recent study of the hypothetical economic impacts of a total statewide ban on "fracking," which is not being proposed by anyone in Colorado today, […]
As the Boulder Daily Camera's Sarah Kuta reports, the University of Colorado's "visiting conservative scholar," Dr. Steven Hayward, who we've discussed a few times in this space, is indeed giving CU students badly-needed exposure to political opinions not generally found on traditionally liberal college campuses. That was the purpose, after all, in GOP kingpin turned […]
The Hill reports today: House Democratic leaders bashing Rep. Paul Ryan's (R-Wis.) latest budget bill have at least one good thing to say about the sweeping plan: It could help them at the polls in November. Democrats have been focused on a populist economic agenda that includes an increase in the minimum wage, an extension […]
Check out this audio clip of Republican Gubernatorial candidate Bob Beauprez taking questions at a GOP event in Weld County last week. We actually held off on posting this yesterday because we didn't want readers to think this was an April Fool's joke. It is not. In the clip below, Beauprez answers a question about […]
The Washington Post reports, and you'll be seeing the impact soon: A split Supreme Court Wednesday struck down limits on the total amount of money an individual may spend on political candidates as a violation of free speech rights, a decision sure to increase the role of money in political campaigns. The 5 to 4 […]
(Promoted by Colorado Pols) The latest reports on the Affordable Care Act indicate that more than seven million Americans have enrolled nationally. For Colorado, newly-released metrics from the state exchange, ConnectforHealthCo.com, show that 277,000 Coloradans have enrolled, more than 118,000 through private insurance plans and more than 158,000 through the state’s Medicaid expansion. According […]
From St. Petersburg, Florida, comes a story that would be an excellent April Fool's Day story…except it's not, as far as we know. But it is perfect for our long-running feature, "At Least They're Not Your Legislator." According to Saint Peters Blog, conservative Republican Jacob A. Rush is challenging first-term GOP Rep. Ted Yoho in […]
An unusual statement Tweeted earlier today by Republican Senate candidate Cory Gardner's campaign: First off, it would be great if Gardner would publish his press releases in plain text on his website, instead of making graphics out of them. Then again, it's not as easy to actually quote him this way, and that might be strategic for […]
As the Rocky Mountain News reports today, another stunning turnabout in the Colorado U.S. Senate race: Less than two weeks after Republican U.S. Senate candidate Cory Gardner announced he could no longer support the so-called "Personhood" abortion bans that appeared on the Colorado ballot in prior years, today Gardner announced that he "takes it all […]
UPDATE: Looking further back on Maria Weese's Facebook page, we found this post from July 2012. We feel as though we can rest our case now. The racial hypocrisy in this country has gotten much worse since Obama was elected President and the heat has really been turned up by the Blacks in this country. […]
As announced by GOP gubernatorial candidate Bob Beauprez today: The pundits said it couldn't be done, but that didn't stop us. In less than a month, our campaign organized hundreds of people across Colorado who stood up, circulated petitions, and put together an unmatched effort. In the end, we submitted around 22,300 signatures. Thank you […]
UPDATE: How desperate is the Obamacare "bad news" spin getting, you ask? Media Matters: On March 27, health insurance enrollment through the ACA's exchanges surpassed 6 million, exceeding the revised estimate of enrollees for the program's first year before the March 31 open enrollment deadline. Enrollment appears on track to hit the Congressional Budget Office's initial […]
We're not entirely surprised to see this, given that Rep. Doug Lamborn has been only slightly more effective than a desk lamp during his time in Congress. We're also not surprised to see retired major-general Bentley Rayburn taking another run at Lamborn, despite two failed attempts in 2006 and 2008. But we are surprised that […]
We wanted to make note of a blog post from the Denver Post's Lynn Bartels last Friday: Former lawmaker Norma Anderson, known for wielding clout during her days at the legislature, said today if former Congressman Tom Tancredo makes the ballot for governor, she’s voting for him in the June 24 primary. “Right now Tom is the best […]
FOX 31's Eli Stokols unveils yet another embarrassing moment for 2006 2014 GOP gubernatorial candidate Bob Beauprez (video above): In June 2010, Beauprez appeared as a guest on The Talk to Solomon Show, and was asked about whether President Obama was born in American by the host, Stan Solomon, a favorite of fringe conservatives who is […]
It's the first occasion we've had to lay eyes on one of minor Republican U.S. Senate candidate Randy Baumgardner's campaign signs. To be perfectly honest, we're a little surprised that Baumgardner could afford a yard sign, but there it is proving us wrong. This gives us one more chance to ponder Baumgardner's iconic mustache/cowboy hat silhouette logo, […]
UPDATE #3: Nate Marshall not ready to formally resign as candidate in HD-23 (h/t to Ernest Luning of the Colorado Statesman). In a diatribe posted on Marshall's website (all CAPS is how it appears on Marshall's site), the candidate says that Jeffco GOP Chair Bill Tucker "[threw] him under the bus": I AM DONE WITH […]
Lynn Bartels of the Denver Post takes a look at the race to succeed Congressman Cory Gardner in CD-4, which includes a particularly interesting tidbit about the secession issue. Weld County Commissioner Barbara Kirkmeyer has the endorsement of fellow Commissioner Sean Conway, who was one of the ringleaders of last year's disastrous secession efforts. Weld […]
(Worse and worse – Promoted by Colorado Pols) The Colorado Independent has been investigating the circumstances that led to Nathaniel Marshall, a person with significant ties to white supremacism, to enter the race for Colorado HD-23. As an early result of that investigation, the Independent's John Tomasic reported yesterday that signs had emerged indicating that Tim Neville – […]
(How ingratiating – Promoted by Colorado Pols) I wrote a blog post a while back regurgitating rocker Ted Nugent's appearance on KNUS Peter Boyles' show, where Nugent said Colorado is the poster child of "moral dereliction" and the Republican Party has "no balls" because someone cut off "their scrotum with a rusty shiv.” Exciting stuff that […]
(Promoted by Colorado Pols) UPDATE: Gordon Klingenschmitt, aka "Dr. Chaps" just received 71% of the delegate votes at the El Paso County Republican Assembly. Dave Williams announced his intent to petition onto the primary ballot, to be held in June. Great opportunity for the Democrat in the race, Lois Fornander, to pick up some moderate […]
Politico reporter Manu Raju has a strange story up today that doesn't reflect well on Republican Senate candidate Cory Gardner. In the story, Raju seems determined to make his reporting match his pre-determined narrative — that Gardner miraculously cleared the Republican field for Senate — so much so that he virtually glosses over this incredible […]
