In Republican debate ... candidates for governor [trunc.] [Greg Lopez most pro-Trump]
The Denverite ^ | 6/6/2018 | Esteban L. Hernandez

Lopez said he couldn’t really find any policies he didn’t like [about Trump] — “I think he’s doing a great job,” Lopez said about Trump — but said he would like to see a different approach to NAFTA and dealing with Canada and Mexico.

I have only one criteria for who to vote for in any GOP primary: who's the most pro-Trump.

So, in case there are any Coloradans here who are wondering about who to nominate for GOP governor in the primary, Greg Lopez looks like the most pro-Trump to me.

Doug Robinson is Mitt Romney's nephew, and Walker Stapleton is a Bush family relative. His mother, Dorothy Walker Stapleton, is a first cousin of former U.S. President George H. W. Bush, making him a second cousin of former U.S. President George W. Bush and former Florida governor Jeb Bush.

Also, both Doug Robinson and Victor Mitchell failed to make the cut at the GOP general assembly and had to petition their way onto the ballot.

Also, i like this guy Justin Everett for state treasurer:

What has “Bush relative” got to do with anything?

Are YOU defined by the politics of your family?

I am NOT!

Walker IS “the most Conservative Candidate who can win”.
Walker’s role as State Treasurer and his expertise in the budget ensures that he can whip Polis in any debate.

Lopez negatives are being ignored during the primary, but if he were to win the press would destroy him, as he has provided the ammo.

Looking back at some of the disastrous candidates who wowed the delegates at Colorado state Republican conventions, I place no weight on the issue of whether a candidate got on the ballot at the convention or by petition. A few years ago when I personally attended the state Republican convention, what I witnessed there was an epic example of crowd madness.

Stapleton is another Ivy League graduate that I don’t want anywhere near the reins of power. How is Lopez on 2A? Funny how the Republicans don’t run hardly anyone for county offices. The Dems always run the county seems to me but then I’m in Boulder county and the idiot school children at the university get to vote.

I'm coming to the same conclusion.

Boulder is liberal, El Paso is conservative.

Unfortunately, its the idiots in the Denver suburbs that make this State Blue.

That’s why CO is so different from the Red States north and East of it and its like NM to its south.

We would need to change the party demographics here for the GOP to regain its old dominance. Ugh.
