There is a lot of speculation on this board and others regarding what happens to the Republican party in Colordo and nationally after November 4th (assuming, as I am, big victories for Democrats in Colorado and nationally). First there will be finger-pointing, a natural occurance (it has happened with Democrats in the past as well). […]
( – promoted by Colorado Pols) I just got back from the Obama rally at Civic Center Park here in Denver. The Denver Post estimates the turnout was 100,000 people, which is really just astounding considering the total size of the city is about 550,000 people and the total size of the metro area is […]
The Anchorage Daily News issued an almost brutally honest endorsement today, for Sen. Obama. They, rightly, write more about the difference between the candidates than Palin, they were not kind to McCain. Sen. McCain describes himself as a maverick, by which he seems to mean that he spent 25 years trying unsuccessfully to persuade his […]
I went out canvassing today. In the morning I got a list from the Obama office in Boulder and hit a boatload of houses in a middle class part of Boulder. Then in the afternoon I went with New Era/Democrats Work and hit a blue collar part of Longmont. It is exhausting work, both physically […]
We’ve talked a couple of times now about McCain/Palin rallygoers becoming a liability for the campaign, with Democrat trackers catching supporters on camera standing in line outside McCain and Palin rallies making racist and other offensive comments about opponent Barack Obama. Though the people on camera didn’t have any idea at the time, their videotaped […]
As the blogger for the No on 48 campaign, I am constantly barraged with google alerts for the terms I have chosen to keep me informed of the online activity related to the campaign. This morning I got a hit for “eggmendment,” kindly coined by squarestate’s own Aaron Silverstein. The Guardian UK did a piece […]
“McCain’s Hero: More Socialist Than Obama!” That’s the title of a column over at Slate.com about Teddy Roosevelt: http://www.slate.com/id/2202950/ Imagine that instead of telling Joe “the Plumber” Wurzelbacher that “when you spread the wealth around it’s good for everybody,” Barack Obama had said the following: We grudge no man a fortune in civil life if […]
( – promoted by Colorado Pols) First we have an example about firefighters: Transcript My name is Bill Wolf. I made a promise to somebody I had been canvassing with who’s a firefighter. And we talked about a lot of the economic issues surrounding these amendments. But he wanted me to tell a story about […]
For some strange reason, Denver Mayor John Hickenlooper’s video endorsement of Amendment 59, the Savings Account For Education (SAFE) measure, includes a mocking spoof of Sarah Palin bickering with a white-haired heavy-set guy that looks like John Madden (ie. NOT Obama or Biden). Was this a good move if they are trying to convince people […]
As you know I don’t really support 49. However, I couldn’t allow this to pass with out a shout-out to Ole Ewegen’s boss for promoting the truth. http://www.denverpost.com/comm… If you’ve been hitting the mute button lately, and calling your television the “idiot box” during this deluge of negative political campaign advertising, we sympathize. If you’re […]
Over this past election cycle, I was fortunate enough to actually meet candidates I like and interview them. I sought out Larry Kissell and Betsy Markey because their opponents, Robin Hayes and Marilyn Musgrave, both betrayed their constituents by supporting the job killing CAFTA agreement. As you may know, his opponent, Robin Hayes, has been […]
Today I was handed this flyer and it makes me wonder… should I vote Udall now that I know that he is working with Bigfoot! Enjoy everyone knowing Bigfoot is the reason Mark Udall will win his senate election! Mark Udall is facing Republican Bob Schaffer in one of the toughest senate battles in the […]
Why is the unholy alliance of Union Bosses, the Denver Chamber of Commerce and Governor Ritter so opposed to Clean Government? When you see Unions, Politicians and Corrupt Businessmen united in an unholy alliance … all citizen’s need to ask why. But wait there must be something to this effort. Publicly elected CU regent Tom […]
I was reading Mark Blumenthal last night when I came across an article he had linked to by David Hill at The Hill: I spotted a new word this week that may soon be a stock part of the jargon of elections: precount. The context in which the word was coined was more general, describing […]
UPDATE: Confirmed by The Fort Collins Coloradoan. The NRCC has apparently decided to pull out of CD-4, leaving Rep. Marilyn Musgrave to fight Democrat Betsy Markey on her own. Both the DCCC and the NRCC have done extensive polling recently, and from what we understand, the numbers aren’t good for Musgrave. So today the NRCC […]
(But she might be smarter than a 1st grader – promoted by Colorado Pols) During a televised interview on NBC 9, Gov. Sarah Palin was presented with a simple question from a 3rd-Grader: “What does the Vice President do?” Her answer (provided by DailyKos): In her cutest (or most irritating, depending on how you view […]
Barack Obama is pleading for voters to not wait until election day but to cast their votes for him now. That is itself the dangerous connection to Colorado’s 5th Congressional District Congressman, Doug Lamborn. How so? Those voters who vote in haste and repent in liesure are a “good” thing for the candidate for […]
from: Hank Eng November 4th will mark a momentous day for all Coloradans. Once the votes are tallied, Colorado’s voice will be heard. America’s voice will be heard. But what will America say? What will Colorado say? Will Coloradans say that it is time for change, that the culture of corruption and ineptitude on Wall […]
When you go to the polls to vote over the next 2 weeks, or fill out your mail-in ballot, I hope you’ll join me in voting “No” on Amendments 46-58. I also hope you’ll vote “Yes” on Amendment 59, Referenda L, M and N, and most importantly “Yes” on Referendum O. The key reason why […]
A gun may have been brought to this knife fight after all, as the Denver Post reported yesterday: Taxpayers footed the bill for Bush administration officials to make four election-season stops in 2006 to bolster the then-flagging political fortunes of Congresswoman Marilyn Musgrave, a new report from an oversight committee shows. Musgrave was one of […]
You hate ’em. But Colorado Senate candidate Bob Schaffer loves ’em, as The Hill reports: Former Republican Congressman Bob Schaffer’s campaign in Colorado voiced support for the controversial robocalls supported by John McCain’s campaign, saying they raise legitimate concerns about Barack Obama. “I do not anticipate asking that be done,” said campaign manager Dick Wadhams […]
(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 […]
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 […]
As the Washington Post reported yesterday: When Karl Rove’s office requested special help for beleaguered Republican congressional candidates in the months before the 2006 elections, the head of the Office of National Drug Control Policy jumped to the task. Director John Walters was called a “superstar” by a Rove aide after carrying half-million-dollar grants to […]
