Just after Ritter appointed Bennett, a friend was at lunch with Hickenlooper and the topic of Bennet’s politics came up. Hickenlooper said Bennet was a pretty independent, middle of the road kind of guy who could just as easily be a republican as a democrat. Just another liar, and some insight into where Hickenlooper falls on the political spectrum.
Wow. Bennet is third generation East Coast, establishment Democrat, from a family that has held senior positions in Democrat administrations.
Hickenlooper is apparently like many liberals, from the perspective of his echo chamber he thinks he and those like him are "middle of the road."
