Colorado continues to attract attention in the Bush-Kerry election battle. Friday Teresa Heinz-Kerry, Senator John Kerry's wife, was in Pueblo for what was billed as a town meeting.
Her points centered on health care costs, which she says are out of control. She says her husband would fight to reign them in, if elected.
She also said her husband would bring European countries on board to help in Iraq. "Our allies to be with us all the way to share the costs, the burdens, dollars, the burdens, lives, so the United States does not have to shoulder it all alone." said Heinz-Kerry to a mostly friendly crowd at the Colorado State Fairgrounds.
One man asked about what he sees as Kerry's changing positions on support for the war in Iraq. He was shouted down by the crowd and left after shouting "four more years."
An exclusive News First SurveyUSA poll shows Kerry losing ground in Colorado in the last few weeks. The poll shows President Bush leading Kerry 52 to 44 percent. It has a margin of error of plus or minus 4 percent. The survey was done by phone this week in the entire state of Colorado and included 626 likely voters.
Five weeks ago the same poll showed the two were tied at 47 percent each.

Send Teresa (his secret weapon along with her MONEY) ALL over the states. She is a real poll booster for Bush!
Kerry's solution: SEND OUT THE OVERMEDICATED GNOME!
We need to be sure that the ballot question about splitting the electoral college vote goes DOWN, big time!
People are sick of the doom and gloom from the Kerry Campaign and the Democrats. I remember seeing a recent poll that showed Bush as the candidate that is optimistic, and Kerry as being pessimistic.
I guess this is better than sending John Edwards out to talk about tort reform...
"who cares about Colorado? Its not a whole state." -- whatever the hell that means.
I have heard this from more than one Kerry supporter. They seem to believe they can get more countries in Iraq by the fact that too many Americans are dying. Do they really think Euro weenies will flock to Iraq to "even out" the dying among more countries? Seems weak.
Now we just have to get working on Thune. Latest poll shows Daschle ahead by five points. Can we change that ?
This is true desperation. Sending Theresa out to campaign is the kiss of death.
BUMP to that!
I wonder if Bush starts getting more and more confident with the EC he might make a quick stop in South Dakota to help. I am sure he wants Daschle out.
Keep on stumping Mistress T. If Johnnie's poll numbers continue to slide, you could team up with Louis Farrakhan.
now this is more like it
we need this state to stay in the R column for the senate as well
come one Coors !
WOOHOO!!
We should all be thankful everytime she's out amongst the people.
GO TERESA GO!!
WE LOVE YOU!
Why? You're a bigger jackass than your husband. A feat none of us thought possible.
Do you think having Guiliani or Schwarzenegger along would
help ?
You owe an apology to gnomes everywhere...
Yes and of course Cheney. Even Laura would help.
