UPDATE: The Colorado Observer D.C. Bureau Chief Mark Stricherz shared intel on Twitter following Udall’s terrible CNN performance:
@COpeakpolitics Before CNN chat, Udall overhead saying Obama’s allusion to ACA during SOTU was “just the light touch.” (1/2) #copolitics

@COpeakpolitics In other words, Udall doesn’t want Obama in Colo. b/c it highlights his vote for ACA. That’s one reading anyway. (2/2)

Perhaps the biggest Colorado news out of the President’s State of the Union address wasn’t what came out of the President’s mouth (although, more on that later), but what didn’t come out of liberal U.S. Senator Mark Udall’s mouth. A commitment. To campaigning with the President in Colorado. In fact, CNN‘s Dana Bash pointedly asked Udall, first, if he thought Obama was a liability (he refused to answer the question) and, then, three times whether he’d campaign with the President in the Centennial State. Four times he evaded the questioning. Well, that’s awkward. What’s wrong? Is Udall afraid the President’s presence will remind Coloradans of Udall’s disastrous Obamacare votes?
Here’s Bash as close to grilling as she gets with liberals:
Let's make him toast ..Let's not assume that …there are enough Liberal democrats that would do anything and try to pull off anything to keep this Loser in politics I'm ready to make sure he's not reelected
Senator Bennett is the next target
He has supported Obama and his agenda from day one. Now that the election is coming up for him, he wants to make sure he is not associated with Obama. What a wishy washy jerk. Mr. Udall, you will not be getting any support from me – you have ignored every request I have sent to you, so now it is my turn to ignore you and I do stay involved.
This citizen thinks I've figured out Udall!
Why would Udall be concerned about healthcare cancellations stemming from Obamacare in Colorado?
– He wasn’t at all concerned that he didn’t read this enormously important bill.
– He wasn’t at all concerned that he didn’t know what was in the bill.
– He wasn’t even concerned that Americans opposed it (Obamacare) by 62.5%; Udall just arranged a telephone town hall meeting where he and his staff pre-screened the attendees to insure he would only hear what he wanted to hear. Problem solved!
The next step toward jamming Obamacare down our throats was parroting the talking points. Both Obama and Udall repeated these blatant lies frequently, as did many in their party.
– We can keep our healthcare plan if we like it!
– We can keep our doctor if we like him or her!
– The average family healthcare premium cost will drop by $2,500 per year!
Udall still supports Obamacare while we Coloradan’s and American’s still oppose it….and not a single Republican Party member voted for it. WHY?
– Maybe Udall’s allegiance is to Obama and his party instead of to us Coloradan’s and American’s.
– Maybe it’s because Udall & staff joined Harry Reid’s “bitch session” with Obama and Obama gave Udall and his staff a 75% taxpayer paid subsidy for their healthcare insurance premium because they couldn’t afford it! (Gee, Udall only makes $174,000 + per year!!)
– But hey, Udall and his staff are looking out for us now as we approach reelection.
He and his staff are challenging Colorado’s Division of Insurance numbers that reported 250,000 of us Coloradan’s have received healthcare insurance cancellations due to Obamacare. After that challenge, upon further review, that number was increased to 335,000 cancellations.
So what do we do with Udall come 11/2014? My thoughts revolve around integrity and honesty, the foundation and basis for trust in all human relationships. Unlike your life or your property, it can’t be taken away from you; by anyone. In order to lose it, you must choose to give it away. Udall, like Obama, has consciously sacrificed his integrity and honesty by placing himself and his party’s agenda ahead of Coloradan’s and American’s wishes. It is clear that we cannot trust Udall so, “FIRE THE LIAR in 2014” and elect a politician who puts us ahead of themselves & their party.
Furthermore, Udall continues his silent acceptance of Obama’s lawlessness that strips him of his Constitutional responsibilities to us. Who needs or wants an inept liar as one of our US Senators?
We (those) outside of the Metropolitan areas of Colorado know, and remember. Don't think we're the problem.
He is only toast if people get involved, hold him to his record, and support his opponent actively. The Udall name has a lot of recognition, it is up to you citizens of Colorado to make that a negative recognition.
Why can't we get politicians into office that will be honest with us?
He's toast!

Of course he's afraid… Udall wants to distance himself from the administration as far as he can get in order to achieve re-election… He will downplay his roll in unsuccessful votes…. The problem with that is that it shows his true dishonesty and character…
