Jared Polis is running for president.
He'll deny it. He has denied it.
...
Polis has done little to nothing to ruffle the feathers of the teachers' unions...
...
standing aside and letting municipalities do your dirty work for you. Polis let Denver Mayor Michael Hancock lead on coronavirus lockdowns and masks before imposing a statewide lockdown himself. Polis also signed a bill allowing cities and counties to enact stricter (but not looser) gun regulations than the state imposes. And there's nothing particularly libertarian about opening the door to public employees' unions in a traditionally non-union state like Colorado.

For all he talks in The Hill of not telling people what to do, Polis is a champion at telling people what to do.

Republicans should take little comfort in the fact that Polis doesn't yet have much of a national profile. He was one of the original architects of the Colorado Blueprint that turned the state from solid red to increasingly solid blue, starting in 2004.

Colorado Ping ( Let me know if you wish to be added or removed from the list.)
RINO Cornyn can be the running mate of Polis.
Oh let him try... 90% of people have no use for a fudge packing COMMIE!
A homosexual pervert running for president? Well, Little Marco tried and failed. Guess Polis can as well since it will divert and waste millions of dollars on a futile effort.
The only people fooled by Polismoker are fools.
Ahem… a clear majority voted for an obvious poseur named Obama, and, whether or not he got 80 million votes, tens of millions voted for a senile dullard. That said, though I’d put it more delicately than some of the others, I think there’s a number of swing states and open gay cannot yet carry
No right thinking person in Colorado believes he is.
Of course Polis is a far leftie. The reason he is dangerous is he is very clever at disguising that from voters who don’t really follow politics and he lets other “progressives” do most of his dirty work.
