It has become something of a tradition here at Colorado Pols for us to give you, our loyal readers, a live blog, play-by-play of interesting political debates in Colorado. So tonight's CD-5 Republican throw-down between Rep. Doug "The Brain" Lamborn and Bentley "That Military Guy" Rayburn seemed like an ideal debate opportunity to break out […]
Gun-rights activists and the Republican legislators who love them are crowing about news reports Friday from a meeting in Aspen of the County Sheriffs of Colorado, wherein Gov. John Hickenlooper reportedly apologized to the state's elected county sheriffs for the handling of the passage of new gun safety laws in the 2013 legislative session. As […]
If, soon after the initial day, the share rate moves in your favour and moves to $one.ten, you would recalculate your trailing halt loss by subtracting two moments the worth of the ATR from the new substantial rate of $1.ten. For instance, if you purchased a share at 1 dollar, and your first stop was […]
The Denver Post's Lynn Bartels updates the state of play in the Colorado GOP gubernatorial primary, where top contenders Bob Beauprez and Tom Tancredo are running neck-and-neck in polls widely rumored but as yet unseen: With the primary election around the corner, Tom Tancredo said Friday he believes he has slipped from being the front-runner […]
The Hill reports–it's true what you've heard! The Obamanation himself–coming to Colorado to help Sen. Mark Udall! What could it mean? Will they sacrifice babies and kittens to Allah? Will they stop your children from reciting the Pledge of Allegiance, and/or take away their salty, sugary snacks which is just as bad? Will they singlehandedly raise […]
"No man has a good enough memory to be a successful liar." –Abraham Lincoln
(Promoted by Colorado Pols) I received my first email today asking to join the "Restoring Colorado" movement. In a perfect world this would be a great idea. Being the fifth-generation of my family to live in rural Colorado, that 'blood' runs deep. I personally believe in the mostly-untapped potential of our region to produce energy, […]
I posted two weeks about Xcel’s fight over municipalization in Boulder. Now it looks like Xcel is getting pretty desperate on this, so desperate in fact that they are suing the city of Boulder to try and force them to keep Xcel as their utility, even though folks voted to get rid of them. Per […]
The Colorado Independent's John Tomasic reports on what's known, as of today, about the state of negotiations over local control legislation to forestall oil and gas local regulation measures being readied for this November's statewide ballot. The latest news is…no news: Draft legislation shopped around this weekend that seeks to clarify powers held by state, […]
We're awaiting another 9NEWS Truth Test from reporter Brandon Rittiman, this time analyzing two ads from Democratic-aligned groups attacking two Republican gubernatorial primary candidates: Bob Beauprez and Tom Tancredo. As we discussed last week and FOX 31's Eli Stokols reported, there's a straightforward logic behind Democratic spending on this Republican primary–but it's nothing for Republicans to feel […]
The Denver Post's Lynn Bartels keeps the non-AM radio, non-print news world up to date on the Log Cabin Republicans, "the nation’s original and largest organization representing gay conservatives and allies who support fairness, freedom, and equality," and their ongoing campaign attacking Rep. Jared Polis over his support for ballot measures to enhance local control over oil […]
(Note: This is a corrected version of an earlier version of this article in which I mistakenly attributed a comment by Justice Hobbs to Justice Hood.) For five years now, truly shameless Colorado PERA officials have employed deception in their attempt to take money from elderly pensioners in our state. In my opinion, the deception […]
You might remember Herman "The Herminator" Cain, the former CEO of Godfather's Pizza who — for a short time, anyway — was actually one of the top Republican candidates for President in 2012 before reality intervened. Cain's limited Presidential potential probably peaked here in Colorado in August 2011, when he miraculously won a straw poll […]
As Eli Stokols of Fox 31 reports: A newly-formed group called “Protect Colorado Values” is about to hit the airwaves with two different ads focused on the two Republican front-runners, Tom Tancredo and Bob Beauprez. Both appear to be attack ads, but a single viewing of the two spots makes it clear what the group, […]
WEEKEND UPDATE Reports surfaced Friday that a tentative deal had been struck in efforts to strike a 'compromise, successfully navigate a Special Session, and come out on the other side having tamped down angst over flaming water wells and gas wells spewing frack water. The problem appears to be whom the deal is among, which […]
Republican gubernatorial candidate Scott Gessler launched an ad yesterday attacking his rival Tom Tancredo as a loser because Tanc lost his 2010 campaign for governor. The conservative radio world isn't buying Gessler's attack. In a conversation with Tancredo a couple weeks ago, here's what KNUS' Dan Caplis had to say on the topic: CAPLIS: I like Scott, […]
Take a look below at what we assume to be the first TV ad for Republican Tom Tancredo in the race for Governor. We don't know what kind of ad buy is behind this Tancredo spot, but so long as there is decent amount of money involved, Tancredo is going to win the Republican Primary. […]
El Paso County Republican Terry Maketa, otherwise known 'round these parts as The Shirtless Sheriff, apparently created a video that he shared over the weekend with El Paso County Sheriff's Office employees. In recent weeks, The Shirtless Sheriff has been under withering criticism from the media and public officials alike over alleged misbehavior that includes […]
(Promoted by Colorado Pols) Fox 31 Denver's Eli Stokols reported yesterday that Rep. Mike Coffman has launched a web ad attcking his Democratic opponent, Andrew Romanoff, for supporting tough immigration legislation in 2006. But Stokols omitted the fact that Romanoff's compromise legislation came in response to a hard-line immigration ballot initiative that was endorsed by […]
On Monday, President Obama and the EPA announced new proposals to cut carbon emissions from power plants by 30% before the year 2030. Between Republican lawmakers and representatives from the oil, gas, and coal industries, there was much gnashing of teeth and wringing of hands over the news. Here's what happened next, in no particular […]
(Promoted by Colorado Pols) The Pen, The Post Office and and Two Americas – a simple headline, and a case for our President and our Senate Majority to do something simple themselves: a call to turn back the rhetoric of a "failed US Postal Service", empower rural communities, narrow the inequality gap amongst rural residents, […]
(Promoted by Colorado Pols) Let’s talk threats, but first let’s back up. Let’s talk about what’s not on the ballot this November: A statewide fracking ban. It seems that whatever polling there is, it must show that reasonable Coloradans support local control–We understand the fairness of trusting the directly affected neighborhoods and towns, and elected officials. Most […]
(Promoted by Colorado Pols) Local TV public affairs shows are usually shot deep inside TV stations, where the light of day and the reality of everyday life can be hard to find. Fox 31 Denver's Eli Stokols has dispensed of this problem by staging his new public affairs TV program at The Source, which is […]
FOX 31's Eli Stokols reports–it's a beautiful ride, so why not? Spandex generally isn’t a good look for politicians–for anyone, really–but that’s not inhibiting Mike Kopp, who launching a statewide bike tour this Friday in an effort to connect with voters in every corner of Colorado ahead of next month’s GOP gubernatorial primary. Kopp, a […]
Using the force of government to take a person's property, and then attempting to justify the taking with an empty slogan is immoral. In a recent article, Peter Marcus, a journalist for the weekly political periodical, The Colorado Statesman, propagates the enduring delusions of Colorado PERA Executive Director Greg Smith concerning "shared sacrifice" and the […]
