I think the final nail in her coffin was having McCain campaign for her a couple of days ago.

It sure didn’t help her. Buck ran a better campaign toward the end.

Well, I guess those “dumbasses” in the Colorado Tea Party groups decided to support Buck, anyway. Hated to read today that he’s supports convoluted schemes that boil down to just another way to offer amnesty to illegals.

But I hope he’ll still be better than the Dim.

This should produce some popcorn threads around here. Norton was endorsed by McCain but Buck called birthers, “dumba**es”

Buck inserted his foot firmly in his mouth a few times in the past few weeks, but he is still hands down better than Norton. And either one would be better than Bennet.

People who keep asking him over and over again about Barack Obama's birth certificate ARE dumbasses.

I have no problem with people subscribing to conspiracy theories (some conspiracy theories have to be true, right?) but let's get real here.

Was calling birthers dumba**es a foot in mouth moment or a moment of clarity?

Ryan Frazier is a good candidate. Frazier, Allen West,and Tim Scott will kick bootie on the Congressional Black Caucus.

“I have no problem with people subscribing to conspiracy theories (some conspiracy theories have to be true, right?) but let’s get real here.”

So people who want to see Obama’s proof of being a natural born citizen per the Constitution of the United States are not real?

I voted against this RINO in the mail-in ballot over two weeks ago. McCains endorsement just made me say YES!!!!
