A few weeks ago, there was open speculation that Sen. Salazar would be considered for a Cabinet post. Some agreed, others argued that it wouldn’t happen. Well, for those of you who said that Salazar would be the Secretary of the Interior, you’re that much closer to being able to say “I told you so!” […]
We’ll be examing various aspects of the approaching 2010 statewide elections. Please comment how you would like, but please only vote in the Polls for your Party. The race for the Republican nomination for Governor appears to be under way. At least three candidates have publicly expressed interest, and that field will probably get bigger. […]
( – promoted by Haners) I think for those of us who genuinely like each other and have had a good repartee over the last few years, it’s time to get together and raise a glass to our disgusting political system that’s still the best thing going. Where to have it? Since I’m an R, […]
( – promoted by Colorado Pols) Last night I hear Mike Malloy ranting about the failure of the black church in particular to vote against California’s Amendment 8 limiting marriage to hetero (and monogamous!) adults. Florida passed a virtually identical initiative by 62%. My morning’s Googling on this topic shows that Rush has picked up […]
( – promoted by Colorado Pols) This Fox News video was already posted elsewhere by Go Blue, but I think it deserves its own diary. Among the highlights: Palin’s worldly ignorance must be very great; she allegedly did not know that Africa was a continent and not a country, or what nations comprise NAFTA; She […]
Congratulations to all who fought and tried in the 2008 election. From the historic Presidential choice to the nail biter school bond issues, we came, we spoke, we chose. The beginning has been written and now it is up to us to write the next chapter. How should it be written? Party’s over, time to […]
( – promoted by Colorado Pols) I’m still recovering from the party last night and the months of physical and emotional exhaustion that went into making this happen. I’ll have more when I have some time to reflect but a few things jump out at me immediately from last night’s results. Here in Colorado we […]
Ok, let’s get your list of tonight’s winners and losers. Colorado perspective but national too. Tonight’s winners: The American people & the country. The National Democratic party – President, more Senate/House seats. Betsy Markey (and team) – a gigantic win. “Boulder Liberals” (and their standard-bearer Mark Udall) – preferred over Republicans by 10% of the […]
Here’s a space to tell the world why [state House or Senate candidate here] deserves to win tomorrow. Remember, this might be the first time some people have heard of him/her, so make a good impression.
In yet another sign of widespread appeal for Barack Obama, a hunters association has endorsed Barack Obama, and reinforced their confidence in Barack Obama’s support for gun rights and the second amendment. Ray Schoenke is the President of the Hunters and Shooters Association. (you might want to turn your volume up:) In addition to being […]
Consider this an open post for everyone’s efforts today working on campaigns. So dad, what did you do in the all-important 2008 election? Well kids, let me tell you about today’s effort… I went down to the Obama South Boulder office (yes, the City of Boulder now has multiple Obama offices) to volunteer from 9:00 […]
From the Colorado for Obama blog: On Tuesday, Michelle returned to Colorado for her second visit in October, this time traveling south to Colorado Springs, where she spoke to around 2,500 people about the election and the importance of early voting. Before the event started, Michelle shook hands with the 300 people who listened to […]
Last night, we traveled back up to Colorado Springs once again – this time to attend the only Fifth Congressional District debate of the election season where Congressman Doug Lamborn would be present. Mind you, there have been several other opportunities to debate over the past few months; however, Doug Lamborn has always been too […]
I’m not one to count my chickens before they hatch, but if the AP is willing to do it for me, then yippie! ASHINGTON – Barack Obama’s campaign has approached Illinois Rep. Rahm Emanuel about possibly serving as White House chief of staff, officials said Thursday as the marathon presidential race entered its final, frenzied […]
As you may have read in my past posts on the GOP stealing the election in Colorado, you know that those of us in Colorado are frankly worried about the real possibility of our votes being stolen on election day. At issue, Sec. of State Mike Coffman’s voter purges, in violation of the law. Well, […]
Confirming discussion from a few days ago that both Tom Tancredo and Bob Beauprez are considering quixotic also-runs for Governor in 2010, ex-Denver Post reporter Mike Soraghan reports for The Hill: Rep. Tom Tancredo (R-Colo.), who announced his retirement from Congress last year before his insurgent bid for president flamed out, is weighing a run […]
Tonight at 7:30PM, Senate candidate Bob Schaffer and conservative radio personality Dan Caplis will kick off the GOP’s “96 Hour Plan” get-out-the-vote drive, breathlessly hyped as an “unprecedented” operation that will turn out “every McCain-Palin voter in Colorado.” Except it really isn’t that unprecedented, the “96 Hour Plan” has its origins in the 1996 Bob […]
(Remember, thou art mortal – promoted by Colorado Pols) (Cross-Posted to DemNotes at www.DemNotes.com) I’m sure you all are familiar with Tom Strickland, the United States Senator that Mark Udall is running to replace, right? What’s that? He’s not a Senator? Oh, yeah, that’s right — he lost. I last ran into Tom Strickland at […]
In their most valiant effort for an October surprise, the proponents of Amendment 48 informed their email list that the Alliance Defense Fund attorneys are suing Governor Bill Ritter, Planned Parenthood, Boulder Valley Women’s Health Center (BVWHC) and the Colorado Department of Health and Environment for $18,000,000 of illegal taxpayer funding of abortion. Yay! Suing […]
from the Denver Post – Charlie Meyers discusses 52 & 58. Taking only slight license in the proverb’s progression, we have lies, damn lies and the kind of extravagant falsehoods the energy industry tells to avoid paying for its fair share of the mess being made of Colorado’s Western Slope. continued below the fold… The […]
UPDATE: former Senate president John Andrews, a close ally of both Bob Schaffer and Tom Tancredo, vents his rage at McInnis on Politics West: Poor timing, poor judgment, or something more Machiavellian, would be the only labels a team-playing Republican could put on former congressman Scott McInnis’s self-glorifying remarks in both Denver dailies this morning, […]
To take from one, because it is thought that his own industry and that of his fathers has acquired too much, in order to spare others, who, or whose fathers have not exercised equal industry and skill, is to violate arbitrarily the first principle of association, ‘the guarantee to every one of a free exercise […]
Detroit’s ex-Mayor Kilpatrick jailed for 4 months By COREY WILLIAMS and ED WHITE, Associated Press Writers Corey Williams And Ed White, Associated Press Writers DETROIT – A judge sentenced former Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick to four months in jail Tuesday for a sex-and-text scandal, calling him “arrogant and defiant” and questioning the sincerity of a guilty […]
From the New Yorker, Like, Socialism On October 12th, in conversation with a voter forever to be known as Joe the Plumber, Obama gave one of his fullest summaries of his tax plan. After explaining how Joe could benefit from it, whether or not he achieves his dream of owning his own plumbing business, Obama […]
from the Rocky Mountain News we have the wonderful news: In a Rocky Mountain News/ CBS4 poll taken less than two weeks before Election Day, 49 percent of voters support Amendment 58 and 45 percent say they’re opposed – a spread within the poll’s 4.38 percent margin of error. A second question also shows that […]
