(Hopefully the discussion can be on what works and not a flame-war – promoted by DavidThi808) On the thread talking about Douglas County parents finally finding a potential way around the unions’ destructive policies that have destroyed public education, Ardy had asked me for some evidence demonstrating my point that teacher’s unions had lost track […]
As the Colorado Independent’s John Tomasic summarized Friday, all this talk of a “Republican wave,” both nationally where conventional wisdom says it rolled strongly and in Colorado where it “hit a bump,” was more a question of whether or not Democrats had their hip boots on: In Colorado, Republicans won a one-seat House majority by […]
I just completed an interview of Ken Buck and technically I think it went better than any before. So I thought this would be a good time to list out what the process I use is and how it plays out. (And for any experienced journalists out there that laugh at parts of this – […]
Some of you reading this are going to ask how I know the following. What I have to say is this: perhaps some kids over at the DSCC weren’t too happy with their forced servitude working a DNC phone bank for Bennet all weekend, and decided to share some fun facts. PPP, the polling firm […]
UPDATE: Politico’s Dave Catanese Tweets that Bennet’s campaign will release an internal poll shortly showing them up four points over Romanoff. The big story today, obviously, is the new SurveyUSA poll released by 9NEWS and the state’s newspaper of record showing big movement in our marquee primary races: The pollster asked 536 likely and actual […]
The cast of characters taking their country party back is soon visiting Junktown–as some bitter people sometimes call the lovely Grand Valley’s very heart. And surely some of its finest will be on display! The event, dubbed “Patriot Tea Party,” is being held from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. The pavilion is located at 1301 […]
Today has not been a good news day for the Senate campaign of Democrat Andrew Romanoff. The Photoshopstroturfing story that first came out last night has gone national, and both the initial error and the subsequent “those minority folks” quote from new spokesperson Roy Teicher. So what does Romanoff’s campaign do in response? EXACTLY what […]
We wrote yesterday that Republicans should be careful about going full-steam ahead in attacking health care reform: Now that the bill is done — now that Republicans can’t excite people about what might be in a reform bill, but instead can only talk about what is in the bill — the task of using health […]
As the health care reform debate moves on to the Senate after today’s signing of the House bill by President Obama, Republicans are boldly claiming that passage of reform legislation will play a major role in the 2010 elections. Efforts are already underway, including here in Colorado, to legally challenge the legislation on a state […]
The Denver Post reports: GOP gubernatorial candidate Scott McInnis has largely cleared the field of Republican competitors – for now – but supporters of a former rival say he must prove his fiscal and social conservatism to win them over. Following state Sen. Josh Penry’s pullout, McInnis’ reception as the likely GOP nominee was frosty […]
Colorado Statesman: It has been a long time coming, but the moment is nigh. Former state Sen. Tom Wiens, R-Castle Rock, says he’ll announce his candidacy for the Republican nomination for the U.S. Senate within the next three weeks. The announcement will end what may be one of the longest unconsummated candidacies in Colorado history. […]
As most of you know, it’s almost time for our new front page guest editors, ClubTwitty, ThillyWabbit, and guest front page author Barron X to begin their six-month terms. We will grant them the necessary privileges first thing in the morning, and we look forward to them doing as well as our outgoing editors, Laughing […]
(Not exactly the cream of the crop here for the GOP. – promoted by Colorado Pols) This just in from the Colorado Springs Gazette. State conservatives mobilize anti-Sotomayor effort A conservative coalition has formed in Colorado to oppose President Obama’s nomination of Sonia Sotomayor to the United States Supreme Court, arguing that the New York […]
On MSNBC yesterday, where a regrettably large number of people witnessed former Colorado Rep. Tom Tancredo’s typically bizarre histrionics over the nomination of Sonia Sotomayor to the U.S. Supreme Court. Partial transcript: Tancredo: Unfortunately for her and fortunately for us there are plenty of things that we’ve even talked about her already. I’m telling you, […]
from the Boulder Daily Camera we have another press release yesterday from Tom Lucero University of Colorado Regent Tom Lucero announced today that he’s formed an exploratory committee to consider a bid for Congress in the state’s Fourth Congressional District. … “I want to thank those people who have unexpectedly called and encouraged me to […]
As The Associated Press reports: Majority Democrats and the Bush White House have finalized a deal to speed $14 billion in emergency loans to struggling U.S. automakers, congressional officials said today. Strong opposition lingered among some Republicans. The White House did not go as far as to say the deal was final, although it did […]
( – promoted by Colorado Pols) Colorado Gov. Bill Ritter joins Wyoming Gov. Dave Freudenthal and California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger on Meet the Press this Sunday for a discussion about Western issues and the presidential race. Two weeks after longtime host Tim Russert’s death, Tom Brokaw takes over the show through the 2008 election. The […]
The line between “news” and cheap punditry masquerading as news has never been blurrier at the Colorado Springs Gazette, as they prove again with a story about Governor Bill Ritter’s new education proposal: Gov. Bill Ritter unveiled a legislative package Wednesday that could spark a revolution in the way Colorado students are taught, how they’re […]
As the Fort Collins Coloradoan reports: House Republican leaders chose Rep. Jo Bonner of Alabama to fill a highly coveted spot on the Appropriations Committee, a post Colorado Rep. Marilyn Musgrave wanted. Musgrave congratulated Bonner on his appointment. Both Musgrave and Bonner are serving their third terms… House Republican Leader John Boehner of Ohio said […]
Yesterday, the Bush Administration helped push through another part of Bill Clinton’s wonderful NAFTA program. It seems that on Labor Day Weekend, a pilot program was approved to allow Mexican trucking companies the right to transport goods in the USA. Court: Mexican Trucks Can Drive In U.S. Trial Program Allowing Mexicans To Freely Haul Cargo […]
From The Denver Post: Secretary of State Mike Coffman’s office is three months behind its deadline to recertify voting systems, leaving clerks in Colorado’s 64 counties anxious about finding temporary solutions for the Nov. 6 election. The work won’t be done until Oct. 1 – a scant five weeks before the election – the state […]

Both?parties believe that the immigration issue will help them at the polls this November. Only one party is right. Rep. Tom Tancredo, for whom illegal immigration?was?the main issue?long before it became the Republican Party’s cause c?l?bre, maybe doesn’t care who it helps. Apparently, attacking even fellow Republican incumbents?on the issue is a worthy use of […]
