“We’re Not Going To Control The Pandemic”

MONDAY UPDATE: The Washington Post gives it to you straight: —– UPDATE: Remember this joke? “My 8-year-old son came to me and said, ‘Dad, I know when the pandemic ends.’ And I said, ‘You do?’ He says, ‘Yes, the day after the election.’ Now, he picked that up somewhere or heard that somewhere, or maybe mom […]

CU Regent Candidate, Who Refused To Reveal His Stance on Prez, Told GOP Donors He’ll Vote for Trump

(Promoted by Colorado Pols) Richard Murray, a Republican who’s running for an open seat on the University of Colorado Board of Regents, would be expected to vote for Trump on November 3. After all, no elected Republican in Colorado has said they’ll abandon the President, despite his unpopularity here–and his extremism, like his refusal to […]

President Trump’s Debate Plans Are…Not Good

UPDATE: The final kerfluffle begins: —– Tonight is the final Presidential candidate debate of the 2020 election cycle. The good news, if you are a supporter of President Trump, is that it will be physically harder for Trump to continually interrupt Democrat Joe Biden or NBC News moderator Kristen Welker. The bad news? Well, pretty […]

Again, Please, Enough With The Cory Gardner Martyrdom

A column from Colorado Sun reporter Jesse Paul appeared in the much larger forum of the Washington Post yesterday, offering another torrid take on the impending fall of GOP Sen. Cory Gardner of Colorado along a theme we’ve been hearing quite a bit the last few days: that Gardner, an “excellent candidate” in his own […]

Trump Reaches “Old Man Yells at Cloud” Stage of Campaign

Things are not going well for President Trump. Ballots are being cast in record numbers across the country, and polling shows that Democratic Presidential candidate Joe Biden maintains an historic lead over Trump as we enter the final two weeks of the 2020 election cycle. To nobody’s surprise, Trump is not reacting well to any […]

Oops! Joe Ricketts Botches Cory Gardner Rescue Mission

A press release last Thursday from Democratic U.S. Senate candidate John Hickenlooper’s campaign took note of a late investment in the flagging fortunes of GOP incumbent Sen. Cory Gardner by Joe Ricketts, the billionaire owner of the Chicago Cubs: With ballots already coming in at record speed, Senator Cory Gardner’s wealthy corporate backers are panicking […]

Cory Gardner Totes a Fishing Pole, Not a Gun, in NRA Political Ad

(Maybe it’s one of them gun poles — Promoted by Colorado Pols) Cory Gardner brought a fishing pole to gun fight. The National Rifle Association’s (NRA) latest digital ad for Cory Gardner stresses not just that he’s your choice for “defending the Second Amendment” but specifically, “your right to self-defense.” Pretty standard stuff for a […]

Throwback Thursday: Laura Carno Reckons With Donald Trump

We’ve had plenty of opportunities this election season to revisit the moment four years ago when Sen. Cory Gardner showed intraparty courage not seen before or since: when he declared “I cannot and will not support someone who brags about degrading and assaulting women” and vowed to write-in Mike Pence for President of Donald Trump […]

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 […]
