Third party candidates usually mess things up (Perot in 92) but in this case maybe not. Won’t he just need 34% of the vote to win?

[Grunthor]

Go Tom Go.

[Abin Sur]

Thus ensuring that the Democrats will control the governorship for 4 more years. Thanks a lot, Tom...

For the sake of conservatives, Maes has to drop out.

I hope John Hickenlooper remembers to thank Tom Tancredo for helping him become Colorado's next Governor...

...more malaise in Colorado as a result.

Tancredo made himself radioactive with this stunt.

It had nothing to to with "values" as he says, but it was all about EGO

Tom, I didn’t vote for you before and I’m not voting for you this time, understand. I’m voting for the Republican!

[St. Louis Conservative]

This is more than just potentially costing the GOP the governor’s seat. This also puts in jeopardy the crucial Colorado senate race where we have a PRINCIPLED true conservative in Ken Buck running. Also, this will screw Republicans over in re-districting. Controlling the governor’s seat will give the GOP real power in shaping the congressional districts in the state which has major implications in future congresses.

Tancredo is a loser running a purely vanity campaign. A vote for Tancredo is a vote for the Obama/Pelosi agenda.

[J Edgar]

If he runs, I hope he wins!
I think he would be a good Governor.

Teddy Roosevelt did this to Taft...look who won then.

Hick will get 40 some percent and win.

Ready for more taxes and more government unions ?

On Front Range vs. Western Slope issues like water rights and energy industry, Maes is a disaster for the Western Slope. He's also a good example of my rule-of-thumb that whichever candidate is hyped the loudest as a "Tea Party" candidate is the one to avoid. If the party doesn't replace him, it's Tancredo by default for me.

[SaxxonWoods]

Hickenlooper wins this race no matter who he runs against (barring some major scandal). So I’m good with Tom staying in the race, and getting his message out. Maes has no shot.

If nothing else, Tom will give the snarkers a chance to bitch, which is their favorite pastime.

The chance of the Republicans winning the Colorado governor race probably was lost with the McInnis plagiarism story. Until that came out, polls showed McInnis winning that race. That said, Tancredo is not helping the cause. If he wanted to run for governor, why didn't he enter the Republican primary? The answer is simple. He knew he would lose. Tancredo cannot win a state wide race in Colorado. He knows it. Republicans know it. Colorado voters know it. All Tancredo can do is make absolutely sure the Democrats keep the Governor's seat. Tancredo is like Crist. He couldn't win the primary, so he decided to stomp on the guy who did. What a snake.

[ncalburt]

why is this clown intentionally helping the Dems win the Gov seat and get control over the congressional redistricting.

Tom IS DONE if he lets his BIG OUT OF CONTROL EGO get in the WAY !

[TigersEye]

Go, Tom! You’ll be my choice for Governor.
