This Sunday, Colorado Senator Ken Salazar was scheduled to appear on CBS's Face the Nation. He was going to debate the Senate immigration proposal, that gives amnesty to millions of illegal aliens.
...except, Salazar has cancelled. Why? Because he found out his debate opponent would be Congressman Tancredo. Hah! What is Salazar scared of? Tancredo's control of immigration facts and pure knowledge? What is Salazar afraid of? Being exposed on national television for endorsing a bill that could cripple America?
The Tanc would've verbally steamrollered Salazar in the end. A shame that Salazar bailed out -- because that's something I think everyone wants to see.
edit: I've just learned that Salazar does still plan to appear on Face the Nation, just not debating Tancredo.
The Gore gambit.
That's a fight I'd love to see!
Tancredo wins in the First Round by a K.O.!
I thought the Salazar brothers leaned conservative even though they are dems?
The spin stops here. They’re commies.
The Salazars? I didn’t know that. I only heard of them after John Salazar brought the Stolen Honor Act to the table.
It doesn’t look like they’re VictoryFund members. What group are they part of?
It sure looks strange to see somebody back out of a debate because of who the opponent is.
So Dems. are afraid to debate Tom Tancredo?
Don’t the people deserve to see the issues of the day discussed?
Are Democrats afraid of Tom? If so, why? Don’t Democrats have faith in their stands on the immigration issue?
I’m not so sure it was Tancredo Salazar backed down from.
This message board seems to indicate there is something else going on. He is being attacked by the Progressives.

Will Someone Hold Ken Salazar accountable?

The messages posted sound like they are taking action against him.
I think there may be more to the story than Salazar backing down from the debate because of Tancredo.
I don’t know if I’d believe anything from a site called “progressnowaction”.
You don’t believe they use that site to do ‘call for actions?’.
That isn’t a news site. That is one of their sandboxes. A nasty one too.
Gosh, there are a lot of RINOs afraid to debate Tancredo..LOL
But, hey, Salazar prolly got a little message from the La Raza crowd.
Remember when Salazar got into a tizzy fit with Dr.James Dobson? What a vacuous twit ole Salamandez is.
Actually, no I don’t. I only heard of them after the Stolen Honor Act came out. After that, I really haven’t followed them because my own states politicians are overwhelming enough to follow.
Here is a debate with Tancredo:

You'd think Salazar was the ONLY elected official in the entire state of Colorado!
GRrrrrrrrrrrrrr
"Salazar attacked Focus on the Family during an interview Tuesday with KKTV in Colorado Springs, saying, "From my point of view, they are the Antichrist of the world." previous FR thread http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1396646/posts
