The big question is, can the Colorado GOP pull it's head out of its @ss? Can it find its own @ss with both hands?

Can it come up with someone who is not a lying huckster or a plagiarist?

And let's not forget that even with the implosion on the GOP side, the only reason Hickenlooper won by a large margin is because the GOP vote was split. If it wasn't, Hickenlooper would have won in a squeaker. And that's with his moderate image, and a bunch of Republicans voting for him.

I have to admit, I am surprised his approval rating went up as much as it did among Democrats. I know a number of them that are quite unhappy with Hick.

If you pull up the voting registration records (published every month with the Secretary of State), Republicans have 34% of the registered voters in Colorado, Dems 33% and Independents 32%.

If these approval ratings are correct, Hick has his work cut out for him.

Exactly! The independent challenger was closer than the R and the stupid repub wouldn't back out knowing it was a lost cause.
