People in this state must be REALLY pissed off at Hick!

(As well they should be. Hick promoted and signed a whole passel of badly written, unconstitutional anti-gun laws, he let a convicted, heinous murderer escape death row, and he sold the only commuter route between Boulder and Denver to the Australians to turn into a very high-priced toll road in a secret back-room deal.)

Bob Beauprez was on Hugh Hewitt’s show last evening.

From all appearances, it sound slike he’d make a fine Governor.

From the interview, Hickenlooper sounds like he’s out to lunch, literally and figuratively.

Hick could have stopped some anti-fracking initiatives from getting on the ballot this fall but he chickened out from calling a special session of the legislature. He really doesn't have the balls for high office.

He was a fun, quirky, and generally pro-business Mayor, but he's in over his head and doesn't know how to deal with the left wing crazies in his party.

Hickenlooper’s evil and unconstitutional choice to sign anti-gun laws put the well-deserved nail in his coffin.

Thanks for the ping, george76. This is encouraging news.

Udall and Hickenlooper were in Durango a few weeks ago and maybe 50 people showed up to see them.

He's the crazy at the party, as well as their banker. Ever heard of the Chinook Fund?

Re-create 68 was just one of many groups that have received donations from the Chinook Fund over the years. The fund, which now donates to groups it says are considered "too new, too risky or too radical" for more traditional foundations, was established by Hickenlooper and others in 1987.

Over the next 15 years, Hickenlooper's initial $2,000 donation turned into tens of thousands he gave to the fund, which supported everything from Colorado ACORN to the Gender Identity Center of Colorado and Denver Cop Watch. He served on the board and was listed as the registered agent for the group.

IOW a closet radical posing as a moderate. That’s been the Democrat mantra for the last 20 years.

People form an image of him based on his self effacing, aw shucks, speech patterns. Presented with facts, they just can't believe he's not what they think he is.

Basically, he's an affable liar with shadowy ties to the most radical left elements corrupting our society.

Thank you for both pings lp! :) I’m not going to get super excited, but it’s better than the other way around. Here’s hoping and keeping fingers crossed for November.

We are in recession and 64% of Coloradans think the economy is good or excellent. Is everybody stoned out there?
