Both can buzz off?
Boebert is one of the only Republicans that has any stones to tell it like it is!
Others in her party should take notes!
We need more like her!

Ken Buck, worthless trash, good riddance! The only thing that made him of ANY value was a thin majority!

Buck just threw in his last chip in the power game of Washington. In two weeks, he will be relegated to the trash heap of history with no relevance whatsoever. But he has effectively jettisoned any future in the Republican Party, so he might as well join the Democratic Socialist Party.

I question your intent for posting.

Boebert has made mistakes, but she is 100% in tune with the Western Slope of CO. (except the old hippie pockets)

I know Colorado.

Bear in mind.

The Hill is 90% leftist propaganda.

if they’re applied to a hardcore conservative like Buck.

Seriously? Buck is RINO to the core, and he resigned early to stick it to Colorado conservatives. He repeatedly sticks it to conservatives. Never forget he voted against the Mayorkas impeachment. No conservative would have done that. He's petty and vindictive, as proven by his early exit, and I hope to God that whatever money-making endeavor he goes into will fail miserably.

If Boebert was popular in her own district none of this would matter.

Sure, don't blame the uniparty hack, blame Boebert.

CD4 then needs an alternative candidate that wins the seat running away.

Whoever wins the Republican primary in CD4 will win the general in a landslide. CD4 was apportioned as a place to stick all the conservatives.

He only recently began voting like a traitor. Up until last year he had one of the most conservative voting records in DC. Maybe dementia got to him.

Boebert is making the right decisions in this circumstance.

Only because she would lose the special election, and lose badly.

Ask me how I know - I live here...the conservatives in CD4 are done with her and her immoral ways.

Boebert was giving a handy to a dude who owned a tranny bar. She’s done.

I understand being upset with his being a party renegade, but I can’t see how someone who for years has voted over 95% of the time on the right side of issues is now somehow un-Republican. Ilhan Omar frequently diverges from her party leadership, but no one has ever declared her to be anything other than a Democrat.

Cut the gaslighting, Miami.

Democrats never go circular firing squad on other Democrats.

All we need to know about RepukeLickings is the George Santos fiasco.

If he had been a Democrat, there would have been a solid phalanx of rabid Democrat House members with blood in their eye defending him.

It's ALL about The Power.

No, she’s not running in the District 4 (Ken Buck’s district) special election because to do that she’d have to first resign from her District 3 Congressional seat. Unlike Buck, she’d NEVER do that and further weaken the VERY slim Republican majority in the House.

She is, however, running in District 4’s primary election… which she will win. She’s a rock-solid reliable MAGA Republican.

I’ve no argument with you. Republicans are constantly sniping at one another. The default setting of calling Republicans RINOs is a symptom of that disunity.

I don't know where you're getting your hopium.

I'm actually in CD4 and participate in all the party assemblies, conventions, etc.

There is no appetite for Boebert here. Her reception amongst the conservatives is tepid at best.

What are your credentials to say otherwise?

In other words, you don't live in CD4 but are stumping for Boebert.

Let those of us in CD4 pick our own conservative, who also lives by a Christian moral ethic.

OK… a conservative like Pence? Hopefully not. It’s certainly up to District 4’s voters to make the choice.
