Six points and under 50 still doesn't seem that comfortable to me.

A Republican can win against Hick, but everything will have to go right for them and wrong for Hick.

This is an early CO poll, this is Rasmussen and I heard that Gessler is very moderate.

Beauprez wasn't tested?...

Approval 44% -- 50% chance of winning for an incumbent. Hickenlooper has campaigned for the office and won. He must campaign to win...

I don't see the approval rating, but I'd bet on him winning re-election.

I know, right?

Hick is polling in the low to mid 40s as an incumbent in a right-trending state with a rock star Republican at the top of the ticket for Senate and Hick is comfortable? Maybe as comfortable as a PETA activist at your local Outback.

Besides, Beauprez is a slight favorite to win the nomination and he was inexplicably left out of this poll.

I say Hick has whatever advantage incumbency gives you, but it isn't much.

What are you talking about?

Also, how is Cory Gardner a rock star? He's about as overrated as Ed Gillespie.

Cory Gardner is a Rubioesque young face of the GOP. He is about as good as it gets for the Republican Party, and he was, in many ways, angling for this role for years.

And I suspect that Mark Udall would very much love to have Mark Warner's favotability and opponent.

So you're admitting Gardner is a light-weight joke? Rubio isn't even that popular with Republicans, dude. How is Gardner going to win in Colorado if he can't appeal to the moderates? Hint: he can't, and he won't...

He's an extremist who can't be elected without the vote on the left being split?

Ok where did you hear this?  I would prefer Gardner over Beauprez, he had a terrible year in 2006, don't forget. Lost by 15 points if IIRC.

53-45% Hickenlooper at the end. It won't be that competitive.
