CO-Quinnipiac: Dems getting crushed, Sanders does slightly better than Hillary

Junk poll, Hillary wouldn't lose CO by half that much in a Pepiblican landslide.

You are living an illusion as big as ExtremeRepublican's electoral map predictions if you think CO is that safe in Hillary's hands come 2016, friend.

I wasn't arguing it was safe for Hillary, I was arguing that she'd only lose it by mid-high single digits in a Republican landslide, since Republicans would have to win the popular vote by a similar margin.

Colorado will probably be close. It's not New Mexico, but people who think it's Safe R are the delusional ones, not me.

I like how everyone assumes that Colorado only went Democratic in 2008 and 2012 because it had Obama fever, and it's actually a red state at heart. I didn't realize Republicans had won every other statewide race there in the past ten years.... maybe that's because Gardner's ultra-landslide win of 1.9% last year is the only time Republicans have won a statewide race in Colorado in the past ten years. Hard to argue that it's a red state.

I was referring to senate and governor races, but fine. Point taken. My point is that Colorado is not North Carolina. You could argue that North Carolina is pretty red state, since Democrats have had virtually no luck there other than in 2008. Obama's win there could be considered an anomaly. His wins in Colorado, not so much.
