The margin is close, and Gardener has two big issues on his side. Let's see how he campaigns, but let's not dismiss polls because we don't like the results.
‘Don’t start this again. The pollsters were right on the money in 2008 and 2012, esp. in the senate races.’
Loosen up, friend.
I thought I addressed what you’re talking about in my aside.
As someone else put it on FR, the Udalls are political pests.
Nobody would like to see him gone more than I.
However, until something is done with the ideological cancer in Denver-Boulder-Fort Collins (did I leave out Pueblo?), it will always be an uphill struggle for Conservatives in Colorado.
The Machine has been doing ads on Gardner’s pro-life stand with no response.
It is the only thing the RATS can do and they are very good at it.
Here is what the response ads need to say:
Udall is 110% supporter of the Obama message and long term plan.
Gun Confiscation
Global tax on USA carbon emissions
Exporting jobs to 3rd world countries thru H1B
Reducing wages of USA worker
Opposed Keystone Pipeline
Government Mandates on employee pay
Radical Unionization of Healthcare workers
Udall connections to radical left wing organizations
Udall family and years in politics
CA and NY $$$ funding Udall attack ads
The list goes on and on.
Udall is vulnerable on all these items.
I have to agree with you. Even though we don’t like the messenger, we are dealing with brainwashed fools who respond to prompts and are incapable of critical thinking. More and more people vote the check in their mailbox and don’t care about anything else. The wealthy elitists and college kids vote their religion. It’s a tough combination to beat.
Gardner is an excellent candidate. But the Udall’s have spread around the west like cancer.
