Rothenberg, when asked to predict a “surprise” says Udall will lose. That wouldn’t really be a surprise.

CO GOV (Quinnipiac): Gov John Hickenlooper (D) 46%, ex-Cong Bob Beauprez (R) 41% ... Hickenlooper 44%, St Sen Mike Kopp (R) 40%. : Gov John Hickenlooper (D) 47%, ex-Cong Tom Tancredo (R) 42% ... Hickenlooper 44%, Sec of St Scott Gessler (R) 41%.

Gessler polling the best, same as the last poll I saw. He trails by 3. Beauprez is trailing by the same margin as Tancredo, 5 (though I think Beauprez’s chances would be much better, I doubt Tancredo could win.)

I think Gessler would be the best to run here, as he has won statewide. Running a 2006 or 2010 retread is a bad idea.
