Rand Paul Leads Hillary Clinton In Crucial Battleground State Of Colorado

The state of Colorado has swung from a solidly Republican state over a decade ago to a Democratic-leaning state in recent elections. If Republicans want to take back the White House in 2016 they must appeal to nontraditional GOP voters in states like Colorado, and Rand Paul is the only candidate with potential to do so.

According to a new poll from Quinnipiac University, libertarian-leaning Sen. Rand Paul is the only potential 2016 Republican presidential candidate to lead Hillary Clinton in the battleground state of Colorado. While big GOP donors and other establishment forces have questioned Paul’s electability, opting instead to “draft” former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, In fact, not only does Paul have a statistically significant lead, but he is the only Republican candidate to have consistently held a lead over Clinton in the state.

Hmmmm, what sets Colorado apart from the other 49 states? Oh, yeah, legalized recreational marijuana! And a libertarian does well there in the polls taken two years before the conventions? Amazing!

I agree with you but you're never going to get across to a segment of people who post on this forum and believe that the same country that sent Obama to the White House twice is going to turn around and elect Ted Cruz or Sarah Palin to replace him.

Rand Paul is increasingly looking more and more to be the most conservative candidate who can actually win.
