Seriously? “Four Corners” Cory Gardner Blows Off Grand Junction

Yesterday, the Grand Junction Sentinel’s editorial board published their research into Colorado’s two U.S. Senate candidates. The newspaper didn’t endorse a candidate in keeping with their policy this year, but nonetheless made clear they were most displeased by the choice of incumbent GOP Sen. Cory Gardner to decline to meet with them. That’s right, folks–the […]

Pat Neville Can’t Win, Won’t Play

House Minority Leader Patrick Neville is taking his ball and going home. As The Colorado Times Recorder reports, Neville waited until Friday to announce that he would no longer attempt to lead the Republican caucus in the state legislature: #COLEG NEWS: @COHouseGOP‘s @PatrickForCO announces he won’t seeking another term as Minority Leader, preferring instead to “lead […]

Throwback Thursday: Four Years Ago Today

Four years ago today, as the controversy raged one day after a recording of then-GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump surfaced with Trump making a series of comments that crudely boasted of his supposed ability as a celebrity to commit sexual assault with impunity, Sen. Cory Gardner issued a statement that seems unthinkable today: calling for […]

Trump’s Stimulus Chaos Is Incredibly Stupid Politics

As the Washington Post reports, the on-again off-again lifeline millions of Americans are holding on for is back on again, two days after President Donald Trump sent markets and stimulus negotiations into disarray by declaring no deal until “after I win.” President Trump said Thursday that economic relief talks are back on and could include […]

“I Even Got a Pretty Mugshot Out of It,” Says Boebert, Mocking Her Arrest

(Mug shots always bring out the best – Promoted by Colorado Pols) Demonstrating no remorse for failing to show up for court multiple times, resulting in warrants being issued for her arrest, Colorado congressional candidate Lauren Boebert on Friday misrepresented and mocked her criminal arrest record, saying at one point, “And I even got a […]

Rope-A-Dope: Cory Gardner Tries Too Hard In First Debate

Friday evening, as readers know, Colorado’s U.S. Senate candidates met in Pueblo for the first of several scheduled debates. Friday’s event was not televised, but was live-streamed with somewhere in the neighborhood of 4,000 people tuned in at any given time. The relative lack of viewership compared to subsequent debates which are expected to be […]

Colorado Republican Women’s Group Leader Defends Proud Boys

Former Colorado Republican state chair Amy C. Ollivier, a longtime party insider who now helps lead the state GOP’s “Women in Action” group, praised the Proud Boys in a long Facebook post, calling them “wonderful men” and “great Patriotic Americans.” Ollivier wrote her post Wednesday morning, following President Trump’s Tuesday night debate statement in which […]

Another Indication that Gardner’s Days are Numbered

Last week, the Cook Political Report changed its ratings for Colorado’s U.S. Senate race, moving their prediction to the left from “Toss Up” to “Lean Democratic.” Today, another national handicapper made an even bigger change: Sabato’s Crystal Ball has adjusted its ratings for Colorado from “Leans Democratic” to “Likely Democratic.” As Kyle Kondik and J. […]

Yes Colorado, Post Card Palooza Was One Giant Setup

This afternoon, as Ernest Luning of the Colorado Springs Gazette’s political blog reports, the other shoe dropped in a situation we’ve been following for a number of days–an erroneous story at CBS4 Denver about post cards sent to non-voters outlining eligibility requirements to register to vote, since deleted, which has caused a nationwide wave of […]

Trump Refuses to Condemn White Supremacists After Debate

Tuesday evening’s disastrous debate performance by President Trump was punctuated by his refusal to condemn white supremacist militia groups (here’s the video of the relevant exchange, ICYMI). Various Republican elected officials were asked about this moment in the last 18 hours. Some ducked and dodged, and some tried to give Trump the benefit of the […]

Fake Election News Reels In Ken Buck, Because Of Course

The Denver Post’s Conrad Swanson follows up on a highly misleading report that aired on CBS4 Denver late last week, which suggested Colorado’s voter rolls were somehow compromised by a post card sent to non-voters encouraging those eligible–with the eligibility requirements outlined right there on the card–to register to vote. This story from CBS4 political […]

Trump Campaign Included Proud Boys in Political Ad, Released After CO Springs Rally

(Promoted by Colorado Pols) Last night may have been the first time Trump addressed the Proud Boys directly, telling the white nationalist group during the debate to, “Stand back and stand by.” But after a rally in Colorado Springs in February, the Trump campaign released a two-minute ad that briefly showed a partial, but unmistakable, […]

Boebert Hides From The Denver Post, Too

This weekend, the Denver Post made their endorsement in the unexpectedly swing CD-3 race, throwing their support behind Democratic candidate Diane Mitsch Bush over Republican upstart nominee Lauren Boebert: We think Mitsch Bush will be an excellent representative for Congressional District 3. She is ready and willing to listen to her constituents — be they […]

Suzanne Staiert Scrubs Campaign Website of Info About Her Partisan GOP Background

(Must almost be October – Promoted by Colorado Pols) In an apparent effort to give herself a nonpartisan shine, Suzanne Staiert, who’s running for a critical state senate seat in Arapahoe County, has scrubbed information about her partisan background from her campaign website. In one notable change in the last month, Staiert removed a statement […]

“Q*Bert” Crosses Up Her Talking Points

Lauren “Q*Bert” Boebert, the Republican candidate for Congress in CO-3, is very comfortable in the role of right-wing provocateur. Boebert has the Fox News shtick figured out, and she knows her talking points…but she doesn’t quite seem to understand how those talking points are supposed to fit together. Boebert was a guest on Fox Business […]

Lauren Boebert’s Latest “QAnon” Retort Is The Worst Yet

AP’s James Anderson has the latest must-read dive into the spotty record of Republican CD-3 upstart nominee Lauren “Q*Bert” Boebert, whose past expressions of support for the debunked “QAnon” conspiracy theory about Donald Trump’s global war against a secret cabal of ruling pedophiles have landed her in a select group of nationally lampooned Republican candidates […]

Let Boebert Grow Up, Say Her Defenders. But Read the Report of Arresting Officer and See What You Think

(Promoted by Colorado Pols) Colorado congressional candidate Lauren Boebert continues to downplay the seriousness of her history of arrests, saying they resulted in minor fines and charges. That’s true, but it’s the circumstances around her arrests that continue to cause Boebert trouble in her campaign. See billboard below. For example, there’s the fact that she […]
