President George Bush talks with former Denver Broncos quarterback John Elway.
President George Bush holds the granddaughter of U.S. Senator Ben Nighthorse Campbell, R-Colo., right, at a campaign rally in Greenwood Village, Colo., on Tuesday, Sept. 14, 2004. Pete Coors a candidate for U. S. Senate stands next to Campbell and former Denver Broncos quarterback John Elway applauds at far left.
Izzat Johnnie Cochran over Pete's left shoulder? :^)
Great pics! Thanks!
Go Broncos! Pass the Coors, please.
(These photos have been certified by CBS experts as geniune unretouched originals.)
God bless this guy. The President is out there taking heaps of idiotic left-wing crap and still manages to bat it home.
I apologize for everything bad I ever said about the AFC.
Compared to the bored looking (paid?) "crowds" at Kerry rallies, our base seems quite energized!
Ooh, Elway is going to be on the DU hate list for sure now! LOL.
This is a gathering of good, decent folks. This is the W we know and love-- and America is seeing it. The contast between W and Lurch couldn't be more pronounced.
Any word on how Pete Coors is polling in the Senate race?
Wow!!!
A few weeks ago, Bush was in Seattle for a private fundraiser on the same day Kerry was here for a public rally. A local cartoonist siezed the opportunity to contrast the "secretive, backroom, fat-cat" Bush campaign with the "open-air, everyman, populist" Kerry campaign. Of course a couple days later Kerry was doing a private fundraiser in Martha's Vineyard while Bush was doing a public rally in Missouri (I think it was). Only a dishonest political cartoonist would try to claim that all of Bush's campaigning is done at private fundraisers, and Kerry's is all done in public rallies. And these pics today underscore that point.
Is it just me, or is there something creepy about that dark-haired guy in the center of this photo next to the man with a beard and directly under someone's armpit? I know it could be the sunlight, whatever, but the way he is looking at President Bush is just a little strange.
Why no pictures of the crowd?
I saw a fox clip in the am which showed the area PACKED.
are the MSM affraid of crowd comparisons?
ping!! (check out my broncos!!) :)
It is unconstitutional, because it is a referendum. The constitution very specifically says that the state legislatures, and only the state legislatures have the authority to determine the method by which electors are chosen! The Colorado legislature very specifically rejected such a system.
As long as large states like California, New York and Texas do not change from a winner take all system, it is not in the interest of small states like Colorado to do so.
I also don't want to forgot to mention that it also violates the federal election code. The method by which the electors is selected must be in place before (as I recall at least six days prior to) the date the electors are chosen which is election day. Even if the a referendum were a valid mechanism of determining the method of allocating electors, this referendum is too late to affect the 2004 election. This referendum should be fought in court and removed from the ballot.
Article II.Section 1
The executive Power shall be vested in a President of the United States of America. He shall hold his Office during the Term of four Years, and, together with the Vice-President chosen for the same Term, be elected, as follows:Each State shall appoint, in such Manner as the Legislature thereof may direct, a Number of Electors, equal to the whole Number of Senators and Representatives to which the State may be entitled in the Congress: but no Senator or Representative, or Person holding an Office of Trust or Profit under the United States, shall be appointed an Elector.
