http://www.nytimes.com/2010/12… A quarter of the tax cuts go to the richest ONE PERCENT of our citizens. The poorest get taxed more. And the deficit continues to skyrocket. NOT “change we can believe in.” And NOT true to Tea Party ideas, either. Both political parties seem to be betraying their supporters.
It’s hard to spend money when it’s locked in a warehouse… or if it looks like your kid made it with a box of crayons. From CNBC: A significant production problem with new high-tech $100 bills has caused government printers to shut down production of the new notes and to quarantine more than one billion […]

Defeated GOP Senate candidate Ken Buck sat down yesterday with 9NEWS’ Adam Schrager. Senate candidate Ken Buck (R-Colorado) says he’s still “scratching his head” and has “no idea” how he lost last week to Sen. Michael Bennet (D-Colorado). In his first on-camera interview since Election Day, Buck says the overriding question remains: “Why did the […]

After explaining to Jon Stewart that some Democrats had to take tough, important votes in the last two years to pass legislation, President Obama went on to list three representatives: Tom Perriello of Virginia: A tough race and an important name to drop, seeing as The Daily Show is filming in D.C. this week. John […]
Continuing a pattern of GOP U.S. Senate candidate Ken Buck suddenly canceling appearances with little explanation, here’s today’s edition–in his stomping ground of Greeley, an event for HD-50 candidate Bob “Shakedown” Boswell: “I Love Bob Rally” this Saturday with Special Guest Ken Buck Time Saturday, October 23 · 11:00am – 12:00pm Location Lincoln Park Greeley […]
(Get out your crystal balls, polsters, and have a little fun this weekend. See if you can match my record of prognosticating, set when I not only picked the Titanic over the Iceburg, but gave the iceburg the points! – promoted by Voyageur) A guess will do, but if you want to put serious work […]
“Sen. Inhofe was the first person to stand up and say this global warming is the greatest hoax that has been perpetrated,” Ken Buck said yesterday, The Coloradoan reports today. “The evidence just keeps supporting his view, and more and more people’s view, of what’s going on.” Even if you think global warming is a […]
You’ve no doubt seen the video already on Republican Senate candidate Ken Buck comparing homosexuality to alcoholism in a debate with Sen. Michael Bennet yesterday on “Meet the Press.” That statement is getting a lot of negative press for Buck today, as it should (here, here, and here, for a few examples), but as we […]
(As we’ve said for more than a week now, the Buck rape case story is really hurting him – and voters haven’t even seen the case in a TV ad yet. – promoted by Colorado Pols) From Rasmussen Reports: Incumbent Democrat Michael Bennet and his Republican challenger Ken Buck are in a virtual tie in […]

You’ll be able to see how your Facebook friends are voting and show them how you’re voting. It’s sorta like a cheat sheet for voting. Great […]
(Now that’s what we call “stealth” – promoted by Colorado Pols) POLS UPDATE: Rep. John Salazar’s campaign just sent this “secret” email to their press list, with this message from spokesperson Tara Trujillo, titled “SSSSHHHH…..” Never start off an email with those letters or someone is bound to forward it on… Scott must be […]
( – promoted by DavidThi808) How Talk Radio won the 2010 elections for the Republicans. I first sounded the alarm about the power of Republican control of the public radio airwaves at the height of the Obama honeymoon blush and BTP, (Before the Tea Party) A lively debate on this blog ensured. This is what […]
When is candor not a good thing? When a leading proponent of Amendments 60, 61 and Proposition 101–collectively known as the “Dr. Evil initiatives” or the “Bad 3”–decides to tell the world what he really hopes will happen. The AP’s Steven Paulson reports: Gregory Golyansky, vice president of the Colorado Union of Taxpayers, told students […]
( – promoted by Colorado Pols) According to http://www.9news.com/news/arti… None of the amendments – 60, 61, 101, 62 or 63 – show more than 15 percent support The poll does show a lot of people undecided, but every measure would need almost every undecided voter in order to pass. Amendment 60: 10% support, 48% oppose, […]
As Michael Bennet wakes from his fitful sleep this morning, who could fault him for wanting to crawl back into bed and pull the blankets over his head. This morning’s release by the Denver Post and 9 News of their Senate poll reinforces exactly how bleak Bennet’s chances of besting Tea Party favorite Ken Buck […]
Mail ballots will start to drop in 10 days or so, and we want to know how you plan to cast your ballot (and when). Voting on, uh, voting after the jump.
Democrats would do themselves a favor to spread far and wide the word, in a press release today from liberal coalition Strong Colorado, that SD-16 “Tea Party” candidate Tim Leonard was busted in 2006 for violating a fire ban on his property. SD-16, as Strong Colorado notes in their release, is heavily forested, and severely […]
**** DISCLAIMER ***** This is my cut & paste from the Westworld, I don’t personally know Buck n’ Bennet. Like Governor Owens, I never met Ken Buck, and I certainly don’t care what he does in his private life (aka Bedroom). My intention was to offer up some humor. So enjoy, go get a copy […]
The largest benefactor of appointed Senator Bennet’s campaign is the DSCC which has spent over $1.5 million dollars to date attacking his opponent, Ken Buck. One of the lines of attack has been to target senior citizens, a very important demographic in an off year election cycle, by targeting Buck’s stance on social security. The […]
Look, On Oct 1, our nation will begin fiscal year 2010. My predications, I could be wrong here, is that the House and Senate will get absolutely nothing done on the budget. I am not a pessimist but a realist, when I say and predict there will be no way Congress will have a budget […]
