(Yeah, we’re pretty sure we should promote this – promoted by Colorado Pols) Yes, you read the title correctly. Please excuse me for my long-windedness, but This is important to me. I am a Republican. I believe in limited government. I believe in low taxes. I believe in free markets. I believe in personal […]
From Rasmussen Reports: Barack Obama has inched further ahead of John McCain in the battleground state of Colorado where he now leads 52% to 45%, according to a new Rasmussen Reports telephone survey. Last week Obama led McCain by six points, 51% to 45%. One month earlier, McCain was ahead by two. [rsb emphasis] If […]
( – promoted by Colorado Pols) I must say, with their recent endorsement of Musgrave and their primary endorsement of McCain, I wasn’t convinced they were actually going to endorse Obama. From the Denver Post, Barack Obama for president Given this inescapable economic agenda, The Post believes Barack Obama is better equipped to lead America […]
When the main stream media starts to these kinds of questions about the Democratic nominee, there can be no doubt that a major gaff just occurred with the so far “always on message” Obama campaign. Just when Obama started to look like he was pulling away in the polls, he lets a hint of who […]
( – promoted by Colorado Pols) It looks like Powell is going to make a formal endorsement soon, and he’s not tipping his hand one way or the other. I still like Colin Powell. Yes, his standing went way down after his WMD show at the UN (rightly so), but the guy has a boatload […]
From the Washington Post, Barack Obama for President THE NOMINATING process this year produced two unusually talented and qualified presidential candidates. There are few public figures we have respected more over the years than Sen. John McCain. Yet it is without ambivalence that we endorse Sen. Barack Obama for president. The choice is made easy […]
From the Colorado for Obama blog: Last week, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. toured Colorado, talking to folks across the state about the solutions for global warming, restoring America’s relationships abroad and why he is supporting Barack. In Boulder, Bobby spoke at a gathering of about 100 people. He said: Today we have these people on […]
(This should be an interesting topic-have at it! – promoted by Haners) From Capitalism Magazine: …in large part Republicans have beaten themselves by pushing a faith-based agenda of banning abortion and stem-cell research, discriminating against homosexuals, and directing welfare dollars to religious groups. They have subverted the law to religious doctrine and weakened the wall […]
First I’m trying to think of a suitable analogy of using Bob Beauprez as the voice of an “information campaign”. Polling showed him losing the Catholic vote by a 20% margin when he ran in 2006. So why would a push poll/promotional for the website Catholic Answer Action use him of all people? Why not […]
(Updated below – promoted by Colorado Pols) This could make some kind of record book for the most unbelievably stupid campaign mistake, ever. For once a Jefferson County scandal escapes the “neighborhood paper” blackout — no Canyon Courier here, in the Rocky Mountain News: http://www.rockymountainnews.c… Kevin McCasky’s Democratic rival says the Republican Jefferson County Commissioner […]
As the New York Times reports: The McCain campaign’s recent angry tone and sharply personal attacks on Senator Barack Obama appear to have backfired and tarnished Senator John McCain more than their intended target, the latest New York Times/CBS News poll has found. After several weeks in which the McCain campaign unleashed a series of […]
Wayne “Who” Wolf, running to unseat Rep. John Salazar in the 3rd CD, is grousing that the state GOP just isn’t trying hard enough on his behalf. The GJ Sentinel has an article that notes: Republican congressional candidate Wayne Wolf said Tuesday the Colorado Republican Party has failed to deliver on its promise to support […]
UPDATE: CMW responds to charges from Schaffer that they are ‘attacking Gold Star Mothers’ in a new statement (follows previous after the jump). Asks Director David Donnelly, “Did this lobbying firm, Russo, Marsh & Rogers, encourage Bob Schaffer and his company to seek oil deals in Iraq? Did the lobbying firm know that Schaffer’s company […]
( – promoted by Colorado Pols) From The Jed Report Marc Ambinder digs up a pretty damning video, given McCain’s current line of attack on Barack Obama. In 2006, McCain told members of ACORN, UNITE HERE, SEIU, and PAW that they were “what makes America special.” As Ambinder says: McCain had no trouble fraternizing with […]
In my previous diaries here and here I highlighted the evidence thoroughly documented by Colorado Ethics Watch which showed a pattern of 2 different violations of the law by Colorado Secretary of State Mike Coffman, and his recent ruling to disenfranchise thousands of voters for not checking an obscure box on voter registration forms. Now, […]
Talk radio/TV and the internet make it so much easier for the haters to show how they feel about politicians. We didn’t have YouTube or real blogs at the beginning of W’s first term, but they’re being used to devastating effect today. Will Obama’s Thugocracy shut down his critics, or will he just ignore them […]
( – promoted by Colorado Pols) I was very surprised on Tuesday when I saw the first ad by local furniture mogul Jake Jabs. My first thought was, “Well jeeze, I’m glad I never bought anything there.” My second was to wonder if this was an independent effort or some idiosyncratic choice by the backers […]
(What, no shark tank? – promoted by Colorado Pols) Ken Gordon has sent his take on the various ballot initiatives on this year’s ballot. As always, a very well-reasoned and thoughtful analysis and opinion. I’ve included it below the fold. Title: Ballot Measures for Dummies Dear Friends and Neighbors: I know you’re not actually dummies. […]
The Denver Post reports as a sidebar, oddly given the intense press coverage the Schaffer/Marianas scandal has attracted for months: Claim: “I’m sure (Abramoff’s) not pleased with the sweatshop I helped shut down.” – Republican U.S. Senate candidate Bob Schaffer, speaking last week to The Denver Post editorial board about efforts to connect him to […]
From the Colorado for Obama blog: In the next couple days, people across Colorado will have the opportunity to vote for Barack as mail-in ballots start arriving in mailboxes. If you have requested a mail-in ballot, we want to see your excitement as you cast your vote for Barack. Send your most creative photos of […]
This afternoon at 1:00, Governor Bill Ritter, Republican Senator Dottie Wham, Dr Eric Surrey, Eliza Johnson, RN, Former Colorado Supreme Court Justice Jean Dubofsky, and Colorado Bar Association President David Rydell spoke at the Colorado Capitol steps to make their case against Amendment 48 and how it goes too far. Demonstrators representing the medical and […]
Over 1.3 million new low-income, minority, and young Americans registered nationwide! Yesterday, as voter registration deadlines passed in most states, Project Vote, the nation’s leading nonpartisan voter participation organization, and the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now (ACORN), the country’s largest community organization, held a news conference to announce the completion of a joint […]
Colorado Springs Gazette – October 6, 2008 Earth to John McCain: It’s the economy, stupid. NBC’s comedy version http://www.nbc.com/Saturday_Ni… The country is in massive financial trouble, and in tonight’s debate you should pin the blame squarely on Barack Obama and other liberal Democrats who have long treated mortgage lending as a vehicle for social […]
I love blogging on POLS, I really do. I love the back and forth and I love reading your opinions and how you came to believe what you do. People like Nancy are ruining the threads and we are letting them do it. Our thoughtful threads are now filled with Hitler comparisons and arguing that […]
But they also endorsed Musgrave. Go figure. I guess we’ll have to wait on Singleton’s orders on who to endorse for Senate and President. Give newcomer Bidlack a chance By The Denver Post Fifty-five percent of Republican primary voters in the 5th Congressional District voted for someone other than incumbent Rep. Doug Lamborn. Though Lamborn […]
