While no visible Democrat has so far hinted at a challenge to Udall for the Senate nomination, McInnis may face opposition in the August 2008 Republican primary from former Rep. Bob Schaffer, who has not said whether he will run.

I hope Schaffer or McInnis runs, but not both.
The Republicans are going to be screwed if McInnis is the best they can come up with. But then, Colorado Republicans have a real talent for shooting themselves in the foot. Look at what happened last go-round. They nominated Pete Coors instead of Schaffer, a real, actual conservative with good political skills, and ran him against Tonto, oh, I mean Salazar, and guess what happened. Colorado votes for the minority in cowboy boots, Tonto, instead of the rich guy in cowboy boots. Surprise. Udall will run rings around McInnis. Schaffer at least has a few principles he won't sell to the highest bidder.
