Rape, Incest Survivors Target Buck Today

This could leave a mark, Westword’s Michael Roberts has the scoop: [T]he Campaign for a Strong Colorado, which opposes Republican senate nominee Ken Buck, is putting the topic front and center at news conferences today featuring survivors of rape and incest. The reason, says Campaign executive director Ellen Dumm, is Buck’s opposition to abortion even […]

Buckpedaling on the Social Agenda

( – promoted by ClubTwitty) Back in May, U.S. Senate candidate Ken Buck had this exchange with Jim Pfaff, the social-conservative flag-bearer at 560 KLZ radio. Pfaff: “These social issues, like marriage, these are critical issues. It has been one of the great weaknesses of the Republican Party not to deal with these critical issues.” […]

Federal Races: Week in Review

( – promoted by ClubTwitty) United States Senate There was one poll out last week by Rasmussen  http://www.rasmussenreports.co… showing the race as Buck 49%; Bennet 45%; others 3%, undecided 3%. Nate Silver at the New York Times gives Buck a 72% chance of taking the seat and he projects that the make-up of the new […]

Why I Support the DREAM Act

I am not a new American. My ancestors on both sides have been American citizens for many generations. According to family research on both sides, I am Irish, French, Dutch, German, English, Scottish, Swedish, Canadian and more than likely, Native American. There may have been many other ethnicities mixed in, but the census records often […]

Abortion Ban. “Buckpedaled.”

Reporter Allison Sherry of the major Denver newspaper is out today with a story you knew was coming sooner or later: GOP Senate candidate Ken Buck has officially abandoned Amendment 62, the so-called “personhood amendment,” claiming he ‘did not understand’ that it might actually ban certain forms of birth control. Having given the measure his […]

Undecided? Elections Have Consequences

(Go Harry! – promoted by DavidThi808) Republicans have been tagged as “The Party of No” ever since the Democrats were voted into majority control of Congress and the White House. So, if given the chance to reverse roles, what would Republicans, in particular Ken Buck, do as “The Party of Yes”? 1. Yes to increased […]

Ken Buck: US military should be “homogenous”.

Every day, I wake up and think to myself, “Maybe pro-Buck bloggers H-man and BJ are right — maybe I’m being too hard on Ken Buck. Maybe I shouldn’t remind people he doesn’t support a woman’s right to make decisions about her own body, or that he told a crowd of supporters they should vote […]

Bennet vs. Buck Debate

6:32 – Senator Bennet first – saying thank you to our troops. Now talking about the rough economy with middle income costs increasing but income has not. Next talking about 13 trillion dollars in debt with nothing to show for it. How we have not invested in our infrastructure. 6:35 – Ken Buck second – […]

Betsy Markey Gets NRA Endorsement

The National Rifle Association (NRA) will endorse Democratic Rep. Betsy Markey in CD-4 in what is a major blow to the campaign of Republican challenger Cory Gardner, who has been trying to cast Markey as a straight-up liberal in Congress. As The National Review reports: Her opponent Cory Gardner’s campaign manager Chris Hansen flatly told […]

50%+1

Not a chance that what the New York Times reports today could be exactly what we’ve been saying for months, through all the allegations of bias over the fickle news of the day–is there? Republicans are heading into the general election phase of the midterm campaign backed by two powerful currents: the highest proportion of […]

Rep. Markey refusing to debate Gardner

Shocking news from CD4 comes with a last minute announcement from the Congressman to refuse a debate with challenger Cory Gardner. Under terms calling for a polling threshold 50% lower then Presidential debates require, ACP and other candidates were not invited. Yet these same terms existed in 2008 for the debate sponsored by 9News & […]

Election 2010: Colorado Senate – RAM-POLL Sept 15- 2010

Buck N’ Bennet   ##UNCHANGED## ## RAM POLL – Sept 15th 2010 ## Colorado Senate: Buck (R) 49%, Bennet (D) 45% Six percent (6%) favor another candidate, and five percent (5%) are undecided. ## RECAP: August RAM-Poll was: ## Buck held an identical 49% to 45% TODAY: 72% of voters for both candidates say they’ve […]

George Culpepper Pulls a Trifecta, But Not in a Good Way

Lynn Bartels reports over at the main Denver newspaper that Republican gubernatorial candidate Dan Maes has hired George Culpepper to assist his campaign. Culpepper, you may recall, was once the campaign manager for the gubernatorial bid of Republican Scott McInnis. McInnis hired Culpepper back in September 2009, but Culpepper left the campaign just a few […]

Thanks for Playing Tea Party, But Republicans Are Leaving

As “The Fix” explains: Marketing consultant Christine O’Donnell’s stunning primary victory over Rep. Mike Castle last night badly imperils Republicans’ chances of winning the seat being vacated this fall by appointed Sen. Ted Kaufman (D). Whereas Castle was a known — and liked — commodity to First State voters based on his more than four […]

Tancredo Candidacy Opening Door to Future ACP Candidates

A Colorado Pols diarist first noted last week the potential for Republicans to lose their “major party” status if gubernatorial candidate Dan Maes fails to get 10% of the vote in November. But whether or not Maes drops below that 10% threshold, it appears as though American Constitution Party (ACP) candidate Tom Tancredo will receive […]

Fiscal Crisis? Too Much for the Buck N’ Bennet show to handle?

Look, On Oct 1, our nation will begin fiscal year 2010. My predications, I could be wrong here, is that the House and Senate will get absolutely nothing done on the budget. I am not a pessimist but a realist, when I say and predict there will be no way Congress will have a budget […]

4 Maes, it all comes down to …

Denver District Court Judge Hood heard arguments this morning from Maes supporters trying to keep his campaign on life support. The thinking evidently goes something like this:   . . If Tancredo, who is currently on the SOS-certified ballot, is removed from the ballot, costing every Colorado County thousands, tens of thousands, or possibly hundreds […]

Bigmedia question of the week: Would Buck have voted for Social Security and Medicare laws?

( – promoted by Colorado Pols) Michael Bennet’s recent TV ad says that Ken Buck has “even questioned whether Social Security should exist at all.” The ad then shows a clip of Buck stating, “I don’t know whether it’s constitutional or not. It is certainly a horrible policy.” In assessing this segment of the Bennet […]

Perlmutter TV Spot Highlights “Government in the Grocery”

As the Colorado Independent’s Scot Kersgaard reports: U.S. Rep. Ed Perlmutter launches his first television ad today. The ad shows the 7th District Democratic congressman sitting at a folding table at a local grocery store, chatting with whoever walks up. Perlmutter has held more than 50 of these meetings since taking office in 2007. “From […]

Blue/Purple turns to Red/ Purple: what the voter registration numbers tell us about November

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 […]

To hardcore Maes and Tancredo supporters… YOU’RE DOING IT WRONG!

(Don’t listen to Bob, keep fighting 🙂 – promoted by DavidThi808) Chances are by the time you have read this it will be 9/12. Glen Beck created the 9/12 project under the idea “to bring us all back to the place we were on Sept. 12, 2001 … we were not obsessed with red states, […]

Bigotry in the CO Tea Party movement

( – promoted by Colorado Pols) The 9-11 tragedy had nothing to do with religion, and everything to do with criminal mass murderers. But today, on the anniversary of 9-11, you wonder how many of us understand that, as anti-Islamic hatred connected to 9-11 appears to be growing and polls show outright bigotry toward Muslims […]

Politics Today: A Cult of Me

I’ve explained to many people, most of the time, with my tongue in my cheek, that I am a me-ist.  I don’t discriminate against people on the basis or race, or gender, or religion. I discriminate equally against all people who are not me. Saying that is usually good for a laugh, but lately I’ve […]

Fun With Press Releases: Planned Parenthood Controls the World!

It happens every year. The press releases and media advisories that we receive tend to increase in silliness the closer we get to Election Day. But we have a new leader in the clubhouse when it comes to ridiculous conspiracy theory rants. According to a press release from Americans United for Life, the true secret […]

In a Quandry Over Michael Bennet

( – promoted by DavidThi808) I’m really struggling with what to do about Sen. Michael Bennet.  Nine months ago, before I learned where he was getting his money and how that was influencing his votes, I was a Bennet supporter.  I even attended a caucus training session for Bennet.  Then, when I came to the […]
