I agree, Maes/Buck


I think Buck will beat Norton, the birther comment has passed over, not to mention Norton illegally aired the video of Buck talking about Weld County bullsh**t on his cow boy books by stealing it from a blog. I think that margin will be at least a few points, maybe up to 10 if this week just continues to be awesome for Buck.

I originally wanted Norton to win, but after reading that I might have to reconsider. I'm not a huge fan of politicians who run a dirty campaign against someone from their own party. I'm not even sure it would be safe for her to run such a campaign against a Democrat, considering it may expose her as being ignorant. Not to mention Buck seems to have a better chance at winning the overall election anyways.

Buck is more of his own person then Norton, she's pretty much a puppet of a lot of people. She's pratically all plastic and not real. It's quiet depressing considering 2010 was suppose to be about real people standing up.

Norton is a puppet,  yes, but so is Bennet. If it came down to the two of them, I'd much rather have Norton because she's OUR puppet Smiley

They are both terrible, really, both parties could have picked a puppets slightly smaller. The Problem is with Romanoff, buck can compete with him, but Norton can't. He's the democrat's grassroots choice, you don't hear that one often in this election cycle. He's way to the left, but he would keep all democrat support and a huge majority of independents and even a decent amount of republicans. He has integrity, and if you haven't noticed, our state is having slight problems at the moment with that one haha

I'd like to see Buck win, but I don't think Romanoff would be the end of the world. At least he's conservative on some issues, like gun rights. But yes, I have noticed a problem with integrity lately. Not to mention Colorado is a typical swing state. They seem to bounce back and forth between Republican and Democrat every election haha.

If Wadhams wasn't the chair, and Tancredo wasn't in the race we'd be able to win US Senate, The governor's seat, CD-3, CD-4, CD-7 as well as the state house and senate

Just out of curiosity, which district are you in? But regardless, I think Republicans will take back CD-4 this November without a problem. As for state government goes, I'm afraid that's only your problem. In Michigan, Republicans have control of the Senate and Democrat have control of the House, and that's just barely acceptable. I couldn't imagine Democrats having both.

CD-7. Markey wasn't as liberal as most dems so that will play to her favor and there's an american constitution candidate in the race so if Tancredo is viable, he'll also be picking up some points which could kill Gardner in the race.The district went what was it? 11% libertarian in 2006.

Ah you live in a very liberal district just like me. But seeing as how CD-4 is very conservative, I wouldn't be surprised if we take it back. Even if we don't, Markey isn't too bad. I'm more concerned with getting rid of the more liberal members of congress first. Unfortunately I think you're right about the minor parties. I'd be a libertarian if the party was stronger. But the fact of the matter is they just take away votes from the Republicans and don't offer much hope.

everyone claims the 7th is democratic, but really it can swing, and it will swing far to Frazier when he wins the primary. It just has been so democratic because the last two cycles we've had crappy candidates and it wasn't a good year not to mention Perlmutter just keeps raising money, this year that all changes Smiley

Nice. I wish my district could swing. Here in MI CD-15, we've elected the same Democratic house representative since 1955. Neither party has been able to put up an opponent strong enough to defeat him. The way I see it, he'll be serving til the day he dies. And about his politics... Let's just say he's never met a tax that he didn't like.
