I was looking at recent polling in my state, and I was surprised at how bad Democrats were doing.

Obama's job approval margin is 10 points less than the national average, Ritter has negative approvals, and Bennet is -7, though 31% are undecided.

Fmr. Lt. Governor Jane Norton, the favorite to win the Republican Senator nomination, has a 9 point lead over Bennet, while Scott McInnis, the favorite to win the Republican gubernatorial nomination, has a six point lead over Ritter. Most telling is Mark Udall's approvals, which are only +1, despite him having an extensive history in the state and being a likable guy.

It's a little early to really get an idea of what will happen, but the Colorado Democrats seem to be in trouble.

That's what I like about this state, it's politcally competitive.  Both parties get a shot in this state which make it better than pure Democrat or Republican.  I see CO swinging back toward the REPs in 2010.

I think that's part of the reason we are the second "freest" state in the union.
