Hewitt has withdrawn support for Maes and called for him to drop out.
He did? I missed that then.
Missed your post before I posted in #11. If Hewitt has really said that, then good for him.
I'd be surprised if Hugh Hewitt withdrew his support of Maes. Hewitt has always been a water-carrier for the Republican party. If he is now supporting Tancredo, then I'll give credit where it is due.
If he's still supporting Maes, then Hewitt and our local talk radio guy, Richard Randall...also a Republican party water-carrier, are really doing Colorado a disservice by continuing to support Maes simply because of the (R) next to his name.
Maes is so far behind in the polls, there is ABSOLUTELY NO WAY he can win. He knows it, and the water-carriers know it. Maes stays in because campaign contributions are his only source of income right now. The water-carriers continue to support him because...well, because they are water-carriers.
Tancredo is within striking distance of Hickenlooper, and can put a win in the conservative column for Colorado if Maes and his supporters would put principle over party (and an easy pay check) and support Tancredo. That is the only way we can win.
