That's the best way to go for Allard. The GOP's chances at keeping the seat improve but it is still lost.

Something tells me either Owens or Tancredo will change there mind now

It better be Owens because a Tancredo candidacy means that the GOP won't break 40%.

If I had to guess, McInnis and Schaeffer would be slight underdogs against Udall, Tancredo and Beauprez would be bigger underdogs, and Owens might be a slight favorite.  Don't know much about any other candidates.

I think Schaffer is a definite to run again but he'd be a big underdog. Owens wouldn't be a slight favorite. Beauprez running would be the biggest waste of time. If the CO GOP let's him win the nomination, they're conceding the race right off the bat (same with Tancredo).

Bob Schaffer and Scott McInnis are both favoured to get in the race alongside Bob Beauprez, apparently. 

If those three are the only candidates, I am behind McInnis for the nomination. I really hope Owens gets in the race so we can at least make Udall/DSCC work a little for the seat.

It seems Owens is unlikely to.  Its odd that both McInnis and Schaffer gave up their seats; in a way it marks them out as honourable politicians.  I would also say McInnis is more likely because he talked about running for Governor in 2006 and had already discussed running for Senator if Allard stepped aside.

Word from "CO GOP sources" says that Owens will probably get in. The truth or just wishful thinking? We shall see.

Kiss of death? Tancredo urging McInnis to run. Does Tancredo realize that his efforts likely encourage others to do the opposite or at least strongly reconsider what they're about to do? I wonder if McInnis will warmly accept the endorsement?

If McInnis wanted to run, he would've in 2004.

He has said that he is interested in 2006. He has nothing else to do now.
