I would like to know what Colorado-FReepers think of the political analysis that the Amendment on individual-rights-to-the-unborn, Amendment 48, will do for fundamentalist-voter-turn-out as far as swinging the election in Colorado.

I don't know as I've heard nothing about it over here on the other side of the mountains. Some observations: In driving across the western part of the state, I've seen more O signs than McCain, but overall the sign levels are way down from 2004.Our ultra-rabid dem neighbors, who last year had a multitude of signs, this year have none. I don't know if they are Hillary supporters or what.

I wouldn't put too much stock inn the number of R voters vs d and Is because our area has Rs outnumbering D's 2 to 1, but last time elected a huge slate of Dems. We gave Bush the state, but lost almost everything else.

This year those Dems are running as incumbents and they seem stronger. The Republican party seems way weaker and less organized. I attended the cacases and left my name as a volunteer and haven't even heard. And I've gotten no mailings or anything.

In contrast, the Obama community organizers are recruiting even over here.

And there's no question that Colorado has gotten more way more California refugees since last time.

It's not in the bag for McCain/Palin by any means.
