Salazar is a lying, corrupt LULAC Democrat.

Coors would have lost a one-man race with himself. He ran a horrible campaign.

Leahy was hoping for Judge Cashman to be nominated-- Salazar for Ward Churchill.

Salaazar is from Colorado which is a red state.

And he's part of the Gang of 14. But he just got elected, so he probably figures he can rely on the electorate to forget before he's up for reelection.

Just think, if he'd been defeated we'd have Pete Coors as our senator.

Salazar is a louse who campaigned as a conservative democrat.

Why do people keep believing them?

Salazar had the support of more than a few republicans.

He ran a campaign pretending to be honorable.

We know better!

Put the screws to him and see if he caves. If he doesn't you have ammo to remove him and replace him with Coors or Bill Owens.

Perhaps his brother will feel the wrath of the good citizens of Colorado.

Or is his brother's district safe?

Washington, D.C. - The political action arm of Club for Growth, the nation's leading free-market advocacy organization with over 34,000 members, today endorsed sitting Democratic Congressman Henry Cuellar (TX-28) in his bid for re-election to his San Antonio-based House seat. He is running against former Democratic Congressman Ciro Rodriguez and Victor Morales in the Democratic primary. This is the first ever endorsement of a Democratic candidate by the Club for Growth PAC.

"By voting for CAFTA, to repeal the Death Tax, to prevent huge tax increases, and for supporting school choice, Congressman Cuellar has become one of the House's most pro-economic growth Democrats," said Club for Growth President Pat Toomey. "The House of Representatives would be better off with more Democrats - and even some more Republicans - who demonstrate Rep. Cuellar's commitment to their constituents' prosperity through economic freedom. It is particularly noteworthy that Rep. Cuellar cast these votes for a stronger economy despite intense pressure not to by some in his party."

"Former Congressman Ciro Rodriguez's record is a prime example of what we don't need more of in Washington," Toomey said. "During his eight years in Congress, he established one of the most anti-growth voting records, consistently supporting higher taxes, wasteful government spending, and a protectionist anti-trade agenda. He even voted against allowing poor families the freedom to choose the school their children could attend."

"While Congressman Cuellar's record isn't perfect, it is far better than his opponents' and his demonstrated commitment to pro-growth principles over politics is exactly what the Club for Growth PAC looks for in Congressional candidates, regardless of party affiliation," concluded Toomey, "It's why we're committed to helping elect him, and more legislators like him, to Congress."
