Note: Steve emailed me his post and asked me to post for him. 27-year veteran and Colonel of Marines, defending America’s security in Iraq, Afghanistan, the Pentagon and elsewhere around the globe. Easily the most substantive experience in national security and defense of any candidate in this race. Strong legislative record in the Senate – […]
(A very nice letter from Will – promoted by DavidThi808) Thank you Colorado Pols for giving all the candidates this opportunity. Nearly 500 days ago, I was the first candidate to announce that I was seeking to fill the 2nd Congressional seat that Mark Udall was vacating to run for Senate. When people asked me […]
(Each CD candidate was offered 1 front page post to say why you should vote for them. Jared is the first to do so. – promoted by DavidThi808) On Tuesday, we have the opportunity to send a new leader to Washington — a Representative who will stand up for our district’s progressive values, make Colorado […]
This week I got to interview Erin Egan from Democrats Work. Erin provides a good background on what Democrats Work’s history, what they have accomplished in the past, and more importantly, what opportunities are coming up. One such opportunity is the Delegate Day of Service on Wednesday, Aug. 27th. This is being headed up jointly […]
( – promoted by Colorado Pols) POST ELECTION UPDATE: I made 27 predictions and got 22 of them right. 81%, quite bit lower than my usual average ************************************************* I have made a habit of making election predictions for several cycles now. So here we go for the 2008 primaries (these are who I think will […]
What we have here in the heart of CD-2land is thousands of bytes of courier type posing as idle speculation on the state of the Dem primary. What we don’t have is any public and/or credible, recent polling data on the state of this race. In the absence of real data we have a lot […]
National GOP-aligned activist group Freedom’s Watch in conducting “robocalls” throughout the state against Democratic Senate candidate Mark Udall, indifferently sticking with the (bogus) “missed vote” wankfest attacks from last week. Listen here (Quicktime): http://coloradopols.com/wp-content/uploads/old_images… Laugh all you want at the fact that this wildly overhyped non-scandal has been fully debunked, we bet most of the […]
As the Fort Collins Coloradoan reports: Rep. Marilyn Musgrave ended what she said would be an “indefinite” stay in Washington after three days, and she’s now preparing a trip to an Alaskan wilderness that’s a major part of the ongoing energy debate. “She planned to stay indefinitely, but House leaders told the original members (of […]
Instead of waiting for Washington to fix our energy problems (which at the rate they’re going will be the 12th of never), how about if we do it ourseves here in Colorado? We’ve got the resources, we’ve got the skills, and boy is it important. First off, whatever new solution we come up with, regardless […]
So, a number of Republicans and Democrats, over 50% of the two parties combined according to recent polling, aren’t “excited” to vote for their party’s nominee for President. There is a lot of wrangling out there about why John McCain or Obama is the lesser of two evils, and a lot of chatter about the […]
The point of this thread is to make PRIMARY PREDICTIONS for the EL PASO COUNTY area. (Supported of course with ridiculous suppositions and wild guesses disguised as fact.) Mine follow. Feel free to post yours too! Congressional District 5 Jeff Crank 41% Doug Lamborn 40% Bentley Rayburn 19% House District […]
We revisit one of our favorite candidates of all time, Muhammad Ali Hasan, son of GOP heavyweight donors Malik and Seeme Hasan. You might otherwise know him as “the next fucking state representative.” And for God’s sake, don’t point at his girlfriend, though that’s probably not a big deal now that she withdrew the restraining […]
After his big rally at Invesco Field (the Pepsi Center no longer capable of containing his ever-expanding ego), Senator Obama will be seated in his “President Obama” seat on “Obama One” and use up quite a bit of hydrocarbons to attend a couple of fund raising events in Geneva. Which Geneva? Not Geneva, Wisconsin. Not […]
The VOICE OF THE ROCKIES blog on Wednesday published a response from the Coalition for a Conservative Majority’s Executive Director, Chris Perkins. Perkins addressed the attempt by Crank operative Kyle Fisk to hijack the CCM’s agenda of advancing conservatism by attempting to use the CCM’s good name to further Jeff Cranks agenda of smearing his […]
(Very, very x-posted) Turnout was huge here in Lamar for the “T. Boone Town Hall”. The doors were to open at 11:30, but when I arrived at 11:40 I found disappointed townsfolk trudging away. The Elks Lodge was already full! Knowing there is no such thing as no room for the media, I went on […]
It’s been a busy week here at Protect Colorado’s Future. On Monday, we were one of several groups that submitted petitions to the Secretary of State to place initiatives on the November ballot. We are proud to say that over 130,000 Coloradans joined us in signing petitions on behalf of the Just Cause initiative, […]
Open letter to Bob Schaffer and the RNC Bob, as a bi-racial women, I want you to know that your apology is not accepted about your son’s twisted behavior. I am tired of being the “good minority” and taking the higher road. Over the last few months I have been bombarded by ignorant ranting […]
Make Sure Your Voice Is Heard! I know everyone on Colorado Pols will be sad when the CD2 Primary is over but right now we all need to make sure everyone we know votes. For information on early voting locations in the 2nd Congressional District please click here http://www.shafrothforcongress… We have seen a record number […]
Liar or Fool is a question I used to ask in the investment business. When the investment bankers would bring around the CEOs and CFOs to get money from the buy side they would try to pump us up with lofty claims, crazy business models and fudged numbers we would wonder-liar or fool. Contrary to […]
Just saw this today on SquareState. I am always fishing for good posts on Amendment 47, the Work for Less initiative, and this one caught my eye. Pretty simple, it actually just asks people to contact Andy Vuong at the Post and tell him to get his facts straight when reporting on Prop 47. He […]
Seriously, as Time Magazine points out it’s not only safe to check your vehicle’s tire pressure but it also improves gas mileage and can reduce oil demand. The Bush administration estimates that expanded offshore drilling could increase oil production by 200,000 barrels per day by 2030. We use about 20 million barrels per day, so […]
UPDATE: The Rocky Mountain News reports: Two Democratic groups today ripped Republican Senate candidate Bob Schaffer’s campaign manager for using foul language when talking about Democratic opponent Mark Udall. But campaign manager Dick Wadhams said he has nothing to apologize for. The Colorado Democratic Party called on Schaffer to “clean up the sleaze in his […]
As the election continues to draw near a lot of people have been asking me why I support Jeff Crank for Congress. They say that Doug Lamborn has voted right and that he has done alright. I agree that he has done alright but Colorado’s 5th Congressional district deserves better than alright. We are one […]
Continuing with their guerilla tactics from last week, House Republicans will be back on the floor Monday to talk gas prices, even though Congress is in recess, and they may stay there all week. More than a dozen Republicans have already committed to make appearances, according to House GOP leadership aide, including National Republican Congressional […]
(This is the biggie for MSM endorsements – promoted by DavidThi808) The Sunday Daily Camera endorses Joan Fitz-Gerald for the Democratic Primary in the 2nd Congressional District in an unusual move for a newspaper that often declines to endorse in primaries. It’s the third key newspaper endorsement in the race, after both the Rocky Mountain […]
