Gays, God, and Guns…GOP lineup for HD15

(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 […]

Seriously? You Really Just Did That?

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 […]

Further Evidence Of HD-23 Candidate Nate Marshall’s Possible Ties to White Supremacism

POLS UPDATE: Jefferson County Republican Party Chair Bill Tucker demands that Nate Marshall resign as a candidate. From the Denver Post: The chairman of the Jefferson County Republican party is demanding that candidate Nate Marshall resign after learning he has ties to a white supremacist group and a criminal record. Marshall, 42, was the only […]

Abortion Debate Polarizes Jeffco Republicans

Great rundown from Lynn Bartels at the Denver Post on how the abortion debate is polarizing Republicans in Jefferson County: The division in the Colorado Republican Party over abortion was apparent during the Jeffco GOP assembly when a low-key nomination for a state House seat turned into a passionate debate on abortion. Nate Marshall, a […]

Gardner Was Affirming Personhood Belief Just Days Before Flip-Flopping

Former Democratic Presidential candidate John Kerry was famously attacked in 2004 for his own admission that he voted against the War in Iraq before he voted in support of the conflict. Republican Congressman Cory Gardner, now running for the U.S. Senate, may have just upped the ante on flip-flopping; it's sounding like Gardner was against […]

“Personhood” Is The Symptom, Not The Problem

AP's David Espo takes a high-level look at the last few remarkable days of Colorado politics: Republican Rep. Cory Gardner, moving toward the middle in a Senate race with national stakes, said Tuesday he abandoned his longtime support for measures giving legal rights to fertilized human eggs because it is a "settled issue" at home […]

Annnnddd…It’s Officially Gotten Worse for Cory Gardner. Much, Much Worse.

Congressman Cory Gardner's surprise flip-flop on Personhood last Friday continues to rage as a story this week, with another Colorado Congressman now ensnared (Rep. Mike Coffman) and a strange new battle — among anti-abortion groups, no less — about whether we can really believe Gardner's Personhood reversal. In other words, Gardner's attempt to ditch Personhood […]

Romanoff Calls Out Coffman on “Personhood”; Coffman Drops Support

UPDATE #2: Per Fox 31's Eli Stokols, Rep. Mike Coffman is now doing a Cory Gardner and kicking Personhood to the curb entirely — not just as a 2014 ballot measure. GOP Congressman Mike Coffman is no longer supporting personhood, his campaign confirmed Tuesday, making him the second Republican in the last five days to […]

Obama Indicates Action on NSA Spying; Udall Encouraged

President Obama is preparing to act on the NSA spying controversy that has become a key issue for Sen. Mark Udall, who has been leading the charge for change. As CNN reports: President Barack Obama and congressional leaders said Tuesday they will propose changes to the National Security Agency that would end its sweeping collection […]

Get Ready For Another Purge Attempt From Gessler’s “Friends”

When Glenn Beck's "news" site The Blaze mentions Colorado Secretary of State Scott Gessler and the subject of purging voter rolls, our immediate response, for well-established reasons, is caution. Iowa and Colorado, typically battleground states in presidential and congressional campaigns, each have more registered voters than they have adults over the age of 18 living in […]

Guess Who’s Back? Robert Ramirez in HD-29

Among the many candidates who made appearances at Saturday's county assembly for the Jefferson County Republican Party was a familiar name to Arvada voters: one Robert Ramirez. Ramirez has officially filed his paperwork with the Secretary of State's office to once again run for the State House in HD-29. In 2010, Ramirez defeated incumbent Democrat […]

Republicans Hammer “Con Man Cory” Gardner Over Personhood Flip-Flop

UPDATE: More GOP anger at Gardner, as Eli Stokols reports at FOX 31: Just like Ken Buck, the GOP’s 2010 Senate candidate who first supported personhood only to disavow it later in the campaign, Gardner is suddenly the target of heavy criticism for trying to fool conservatives now that he’s through a primary. Personhood USA […]

Gardner’s Personhood Flip-Flop: The Story Continues

Republican Senate candidate Cory Gardner was obviously hoping that his flip-flop on the "Personhood" issue would be a minor blip on the campaign radar — hence the Friday afternoon surprise — but things haven't quite worked out that way. As FOX 31's Eli Stokols reports, Friday's news-dump is still a story on Monday: On Monday, […]

Not a “lie” for Udall to claim Gardner opposes abortion for rape

(Let's be crystal clear – promoted by Colorado Pols) The Denver Post reported Friday that senatorial candidate Cory Gardner accused the Udall campaign of lying when Udall claimed Gardner opposes abortion, even in the cases of rape and incest. The Post's Lynn Bartels reported Friday: Gardner said he stepped forward because Udall and his allies […]

RMGO-Backed Candidates Win GOP County Assemblies

​As the Colorado Independent's Sandra Fish reports: Jefferson County Republicans set the stage Saturday for two potentially divisive state Senate primaries. Disagreements over which candidates are the strongest supporters of gun rights, “liberty” and the pro-life movement simmered just beneath the surface during an afternoon of speeches and voting. Democrats have an 18-17 majority in […]

Nate Silver Picks Udall To Win

(Promoted by Colorado Pols) In one of his first posts since re-launching fivethirtyeight.com, Nate Silver picked Udall to win in the 2014 Colorado Senate Race, saying: The GOP got the candidate of its choice in Rep. Cory Gardner, who declared for the race last month. That will prevent them from again nominating Ken Buck, the tea […]

Jeffco School Board: 2090 Wright Street, Facts and Concerns

(More odd and concerning decisions from the new Jefferson County School Board. This decision is part of a troubling financial trend, including a $400,000 loan to Collegiate Academy [yellow-flagged on district financials] and a $250,000 loan to Mt.Phoenix Charter [red-flagged on district financials]. Click here for more background. – Promoted by Colorado Pols)   At […]

Why Would Cory Gardner Flip-Flop on Personhood?

We said it on Friday, and we'll say it again here: Republican Cory Gardner's unfathomable flip-flop over his support of "Personhood" may well prove to be the decisive event in the 2014 U.S. Senate race. In case you missed the news, Gardner told Lynn Bartels of the Denver Post on Friday that he no longer […]

Did Gardner hear Wadhams’ radio warnings about the toxicity of personhood to state-wide candidates?

(Promoted by Colorado Pols) Back in August, Republican pundit and strategist Dick Wadhams was asked by KNUS radio host Matt Dunn if a "pro-life Republican" can win a "state-wide at the present time.” Wadhams: “As long as they don’t make that the centerpiece of their campaign, or, to be honest, as long as they don’t […]

Friday “Bombshell”–Gardner Flips on Personhood Abortion Ban

UPDATE: In the story cited below, Cory Gardner claims that he started rethinking his support for the Personhood abortion ban "after voters rejected it by 3-to1 margin in 2010." As reported by Lynn Bartels, that appears very hard to believe, in light of the fact that Gardner signed on as a co-sponsor on July 23rd […]

New Coffman® vs. Old Coffman Hurts Other Colorado Republicans

We've marveled for months at the lengths that Rep. Mike Coffman and his staff have been going to try to re-write Coffman history, even as Coffman still maintains a staunch conservative position from his Congressional office. It doesn't take a rocket surgeon to understand that Coffman needs to moderate his image in order to win […]

Udall vs. Gardner: The Kitchen Sink vs. Obamascare

Good analysis of the Colorado U.S. Senate race today from the Denver Post's Lynn Bartels: Abortion, immigration, the federal government shutdown — to hear the left tell it, Republican U.S. Rep. Cory Gardner has a multitude of sins to answer for as he campaigns across Colorado to unseat Democratic U.S. Sen. Mark Udall. The right […]

HD-24’s Lesson: It’s Not About You

We want to take just a moment to revisit a story from last week's Colorado Statesman, wherein lies a moral: House District 24 Democratic candidate and Edgewater City Councilman Kristian Teegardin is not concerned that a past criminal history for attempting to pass a bad check will hurt him in a divisive primary against Wheat […]

Politifact: AFP Anti-Udall Obamacare Ad Rates “False”

As posted today by leading national fact-checking site Politifact, operated by the Tampa Bay Times: "People don’t like political ads. I don’t like them either. But health care isn’t about politics," she says. "It’s about people. And millions of people have lost their health insurance, millions of people can’t see their own doctors, and millions […]

The Shifting Winds of Energy Policy – Angry Old White Man Edition

(Promoted by Colorado Pols) Earlier this month the National Rural Electric Cooperative Association (NRECA) held its annual conference in Nashville. Jo Ann Emerson, former Missouri Congresswoman-turned-CEO of her top political donor, started the conference with an attack on the Obama administrations' environmental record.  She was followed by the alternative speaker Haley Barbour (who replaced Chuck […]
