DENVER (AP) – Republican Rep. Cory Gardner is leading Democratic Sen. Mark Udall, according to a new independent poll released Thursday.

The 48-40 Gardner lead among likely voters in The Quinnipiac University Poll contrasts with two other independent polls released earlier this month that found Udall tied or slightly ahead in the race.

Yeah, our ‘ripple’ is DOA. lol

The key is to watch for continuing RAT flip-out, like Boxer yesterday.

Agreed.

It isn't over until the large lady sings and then Dems will look for ways to repress votes while claiming that voters are being disenfranchised and at the same time magically find missing ballots.

I remember the 2000 election very well.

Thanks, george76.

Good news.
The key will be getting out the vote.

Mitch probably won’t lose now, but only because Alison Grimes turned out to be such a horrid candidate.

Well now... Apparently Udall’s chicken-sh*t stance on not debating Gardner is “paying off.” Sounds like the Rocky Mountain High might be giving way to reality.


You’re right. Both Udall and Hick are trying to distance themselves from Obama and that fact can’t be hidden from people.

My local liberal rag POS newspaper (The Durango Herald) touted Udall like crazy until he declined to debate Gardner. They didn’t report that at all. Now they have basically quit covering the race.

McConnell looks to be on the upswing in KY, regardless. When it’s mid-September and your opponent is reduced to cutting ads saying she’s not Obama ... It’s a pretty good place to be.

LOL. Considering her background, she should be a much tougher candidate than she has turned out to be.

IMO, although I'm not following it too closely (because I refuse to vote for that scum bag McConnell again), one of her major failings is coming across as "entitled to this office" and grossly obvious pandering. Her bald faced lies about supporting the coal industry are probably embarrassing even Democrats because absolutely no one believes her on that issue.

It's irrelevant, but at the very beginning I thought she was fairly good looking. I don't see it now, *and* her butt seems to get larger in every photo.

More concerning is clearing out the Democrat trash infesting KY’s statewide offices in the ‘15 elections. That a Conservative state sends a bevy of leftist Democrat hacks without interruption is appalling. She should be one of the top targets.

Jefferson County alone can't outvote the rest of the state. Looking at the 2007 and 2011 results, way too many rural counties approve of this crap (please note the colors are the proper Red=Democrat/Blue=Republican, not the media newspeak post-2000 propaganda/switcheroo).

2007, Fletcher vs. Beshear

2011, Beshear vs. Williams

This is what the state is capable of in statewide races, the 2003 victory of Dr. Fletcher...

...And the 2012 repudiation of Zero.

It would be great for Mikey Bloomberg to do an October Colorado tour for Udall and Hickenloop. ;-)

Rush has just been talking about the elections in general. He sounds like us (to paraphrase him today), who are the R’s anymore, why aren’t they running against Obamacare etc. etc. etc. It sounds like he is washing his hands of the GOP this election cycle, they can sink or swim on their own.

It is an erroneous assumption to expect rural countries to be Republican at the polls. As you are showing here.

But note that Jefferson County and Fayette County constitute close to 25% of the state’s population. They have a very significant effect.

During campaigns, the yard signs in Louisville look like San Francisco. COEXIST bumper stickers are everywhere. Because as we all know, Islam would love us like brothers if we were just easier to get along with. Jefferson County School Board reminds me of Montgomery County Maryland. A bunch of corrupt far leftists in love with taxes and PC.

Why would it be erroneous to expect rural counties in KY to be Republican ? I’m in the state below yours and the rural counties overwhelmingly go Republican and are able to (along with the suburban counties and ancestrally GOP East TN) outvote the left-wing White vote here in Nashville and the Black Democrat vote in Memphis (and both make up the same % of the TN state population as Jefferson & Fayette do in KY, roughly 24%).

I hope that Gardner nails Udall to the wall. Over Udall's vote of YES for the United Nations Arms Trade Treaty. This bill was defeated by a 53-46 vote. Not one republican voted YES.
.
Here are the 46 senators who voted to give your rights to the U.N. Baldwin (D-WI) Baucus (D-MT) Bennett (D-CO) Blumenthal (D-CT) Boxer (D-CA) Brown (D-OH) Cantwell (D-WA) Cardin (D-MD) Carper (D-DE) Casey (D-PA) Coons (D-DE) Cowan (D-MA) Durbin (D-IL) Feinstein (D-CA) Franken (D-MN) Gillibrand (D-NY) Harkin (D-IA) Hirono (D-HI) Johnson (D-SD) Kaine (D-VA) King (I-ME) Klobuchar (D-MN) Landrieu (D-LA) Leahy (D-VT) Levin (D-MI) McCaskill (D-MO) Menendez (D-NJ) Merkley (D-OR) Mikulski (D-MD) Murphy (D-CT) Murray (D-WA) Nelson (D-FL) Reed (D-RI) Reid (D-NV) Rockefeller (D-WV) Sanders (I-VT) Schatz (D-HI) Schumer (D-NY) Shaheen (D-NH) Stabenow (D-MI) Udall (D-CO) Udall (D-NM) Warner (D-VA) Warren (D-MA) Whitehouse (D-RI) Wyden (D-OR)

Dr. Fletcher proved to be a real political failure; he had a great opportunity. I don’t know exactly what happened. He probably lost in 2007 because of his strong pro-life views.

Notice Pryor (AR) was smart enough not to vote for this “treaty”.
