Almost lost among the many, many, many stories about the future of President Joe Biden’s Presidential campaign is that Republican Donald Trump only has a few days left in which to select a new scapegoat running mate and Republican Vice Presidential nominee. According to Aaron Blake of The Washington Post, Trump’s potential choice seems to […]
As the Republican Party heads for their national convention next week to anoint Donald Trump as their nominee for President of the United States for a third consecutive election, there’s been some much-publicized consternation from some religious conservatives over what they perceived to be a Trump-engineered pivot on the issue of abortion–an issue that, toxic […]
President Joe Biden may well weather the storm surrounding the concerns about his age and fitness for the top elected office in the land and remain the Democratic choice for President in November. But this is not the way to do it. We’ve talked a little about Biden’s not-very-good debate performance in Atlanta on June […]
The Colorado Republican Party has issued a new fatwa for its members across the state: Ignore newly-enacted gun safety laws. The Colorado GOP’s “Director of Special Initiatives” Darcy Schoening sent out another asinine email with the latest set of directions for loyal party members to follow. Schoening is demanding that Republicans refuse to comply with […]
They say Republicans aren’t hip, but the Weld County GOP is doing their best to change that…or at least we have to assume that was the idea behind what they’re billing as a “rave fundraiser” later this month: For readers who didn’t go to these kinds of parties in your adolescence, “rave culture” got going […]
Here we are, folks, and there’s no not talking about it.
With the June 25th primary elections now in the rearview mirror, we’ve arrived at the moment in the campaign when Republican candidates running in competitive Colorado races traditionally shift their message gears from the partisan red meat that propelled them to victory in the GOP primary to the “kinder, gentler Republican” more compatible with the […]
We were admittedly surprised in early April when Danny Moore decided to run for a State House seat in HD-37. We’re slightly less surprised that Moore has decided not to continue forward with that quest. According to the Colorado Secretary of State’s TRACER website, Moore terminated his State House committee on Monday after spending a […]
We’ve updated The Big Line now that the Primary Election is behind us. Much of the action in Colorado in 2024 was on the Republican Primary side, so there’s not a whole lot to really debate about November. The only truly competitive race for Congress is in CO-08, where we have incumbent Democratic Rep. Yadira […]
Here’s a post that went up on CO-08 Republican congressional nominee Gabe Evans’ Facebook page last Thursday, asking supporters to join Evans in “supporting President [Donald] Trump before he takes the stage.” During the primary election that Evans wound up winning handily, Trump’s endorsement of Evans–contrary to that of the Colorado Republican Party, which endorsed […]
Nothing quite says, “Happy Birthday, America” like opening the door to turning the United States into a dictatorship. The conservative majority on the United States Supreme Court used the opportunity of the week of America’s birthday to award “Presidential immunity” to whomever occupies the top elected office in the land. The Washington Post explains a […]
If you’re reading these words there is a strong chance you are the sort of person who watched the first Presidential debate of 2024 on Thursday evening. If you watched that debate, you saw what everyone else saw: President Biden looked pretty bad. Biden’s performance was a shock to the system for many folks who […]
There may be no person in Colorado more excited for this week to end than Colorado Republican Party Chairman Dave Williams. On Tuesday, Williams was absolutely hammered by Jeff Crank in the race for the Republican congressional nomination in CO-05; Williams lost by a 65-35 margin despite maneuvering the State Party to assist his campaign […]
(Promoted by Colorado Pols) Originally posted at the Colorado Times Recorder Soon after Colorado’s election polling centers closed at 7:00 p.m., onlookers at Congressional candidate Gabe Evans’ primary election watch party erupted in cheers. They’d just watched Kyle Clark of 9News on a big screen TV set up inside Thornton’s Satire Brewing Company in Thornton […]
Former Denver Post political reporter Justin Wingerter, now writing for BusinessDen, brings us up to speed on a lawsuit pending against talk show host, Republican National Committee member, and attorney for the Colorado Republican Party Randy Corporon. Corporon, as our readers know, is one of the state’s most strident election conspiracy theorists, and the defendant […]
WINNERS Campaign Fundamentals Running for elected office is hard, but it isn’t particularly complicated. You shake a lot of hands, raise a lot of money, and then use those funds to get your name and message out to potential voters. There were a lot of candidates who lost on Tuesday after failing to check some […]
As Andrew Kenney at Colorado Public Radio reports, the last, best chance to put an end to one of the consistently craziest reality TV spectacles in modern American politics died with a whimper last night as calumnious carpetbagging calamity for Christ Rep. Lauren Boebert rolled to victory over five hapless also-rans in the CO-04 Republican […]
State Rep. Gabe-ish Evans cruised to an easy 78-22 victory on Tuesday against Janak Joshi in the Republican Primary in CO-08. Evans was having a nice time during his election-night party on Tuesday evening, and then he talked to the media… A little more than two hours after polls closed in the June 25th Primary […]
UPDATE (8:00): El Paso County finally releases their initial results, with Dave Williams getting beaten like a rented mule in the CO-05 primary by Jeff Crank despite turning the Colorado GOP into his personal piggy bank: And in the CO-08 primary, Gabe Evans is taking Donald Trump’s endorsement to the bank. —– UPDATE (7:28): Here’s Taylor […]
The Primary Election is here at last! If you still have a ballot at home, remember that you must return it to a ballot drop box before 7:00 pm. Go to GoVoteColorado.com for more information on where to find a drop off location or how to vote in person if you would prefer (or if […]
The six-way Republican primary for the nomination to fill retired Rep. Ken Buck’s safe Republican CO-04 seat concludes tonight, and the conventional wisdom as of this morning is that carpetbagging scandal-plagued quasi-incumbent Rep. Lauren Boebert is favored to win by a plurality well under 50%–putting the capstone on a political comeback that few imagined possible […]
(Promoted by Colorado Pols) Originally published at the Colorado Times Recorder GOP Congressional Candidate Gabe Evans has been asked at least three times publicly whether he supports the mass deportation of immigrants, and in each case, he didn’t answer the question on the first try. But in two of the three cases, the interviewer didn’t […]
We haven’t yet discussed the Heritage Foundation’s “Project 2025” in this space, but it’s time to start talking about it given a new story today from The Associated Press. If you’re not familiar with “Project 2025,” the short version is that it is a plan being developed by acolytes of Donald Trump to prepare for […]
