I thought I saw in one of the polls from MTP that Buck is even with the dem. candidate. How does that square with what you’ve seen/read?

He did a pretty good job last week in the debate on MTP with the incumbent dem. (Actually, the debate was primarily between Buck and Gregory.) One mistake he made was that he kept using the word “government” in place of business/free market (or something like that). He finally caught his mistake at the end of the debate. The other issue he probably should have stayed away from was the gay/homosexual stuff.

He seems like a great TP candidate for Senate. How do you think his performance played on the ground there?

Buck has proven to be a terrible candidate in the home stretch. His repeated mistake on MTP was not a peripheral issue; he totally botched his most important talking point. Twice.

Buck has been suckered off message repeatedly because he ventures into areas that are a political landmine.

Any GOP challenger that can get caught off-message in this economic environment is proving to be stupid, unprepared, and naive.

Gregory failed to get the candidates to address real issues because Bennet has a record of supporting 0 and every Dem bill.

Buck will win. Bennet has never polled even close to 50% that I know of. This will probably be another of those “surprises” the media never saw coming.
