Nothing says sophisticate quite like running down the rubes who live in the sticks, does it? After all, Barack Obama got elected after calling rural voters people bitter and who only cling to guns or religion through ignorance and fear. Via Mary Katharine Ham, John Hickenlooper offers an Obama-esque assessment of the rural and exurban voters in Colorado and assigns to them the same motivations that played into the murder of Matthew Shepard in Wyoming. The money quote occurs at about the two-minute mark in this interview

Normal People are getting tired of the Elite Gentry telling us who we are, what we believe, and how we act.
If the RNC doesn’t understand that GOP=Conservative, We The People will take over the GOP, County by County, State by State.
Well, he's sure as heck right about that. Very strong homosexual lobbies. And dang, isn't that something to be proud of. (Seriously, do I need s/?)
I don't live in Colorado anymore, but I'd sure love to see his arse get walloped in the election.
Yep, I moved from one of them backwards areas in Colorado to one in a neighboring state. Spend all our time runnin' off them undesirables.
What an ignoramus he is. I wonder if he's ever ventured out of the front range metroplex for more than a fly-over.
This was recorded before he decided he wanted to be Governor of these “Backward Thinking” people.
Denver Mayor John Hickenlooper: “I think a couple things, I mean, you know, the tragic death of Matthew Shepard occurred in Wyoming. Colorado and Wyoming are very similar. We have some of the same, you know, backwards thinking in the kind of rural Western areas you see in, you know, Montana, Wyoming, Colorado, New Mexico.”
Matthew Shepard was a drug addict, attacked by two criminal drug addicts, who robbed him and left him for dead. They then went and robbed someone else that same night. “Gay” had nothing whatsoever to do with it. Are Americans so stupid that they are going to let radical homosexual activists re-write the history of this unfortunate low-life?
Yeah I remember it was related to drugs.
The truth doesn’t seem to matter.
Michelle Malkin:
It sure would be good for Colorado if Tanc won this.
My neighbor and I have been flying the Gadsden flag since receiving our mail-0in ballot
