Well, the thing is that Ken Kramer was a more unpolished and controversial candidate than Bob Schaffer is, and Colorado was less Republican than it is now. Schaffer doesn't have as many obsticles as Kramer did in 1986.

Schaffer must define himself to the Denver suburb voters before Salazar defines him. I like Schaffer. He practices what he preaches in regards to fiscal conservatism. Too many politicians, both RAT & GOP, claim to be govt shrinkers but are not. Whenever a politician says he/she is a fiscal conservative, what that really means is "I will cut govt programs from other communities and redistribute the funds to my community".
