Why is Colorado suddenly so Republican?

If you always thought of it as a blue state, you were just wrong.  So, let's stop there.

It's disturbing how many of you teenagers and college kids equate liberal with "cool," LOL.  If you want to think that way, fine; I can't stop you, and I have no interest in doing so.  However, there are several rich, entertaining and scenic places that vote Republican every once in a while, and it's frankly hilarious that so many of you think of Democrats as strictly enlightened urbanites and Republicans as backwards rural folk.  Ignorance is bliss, though!

The Republicans that aren't backwards Condeferate Degenerates are low-IQ religious culture warriors that are single issue (Abortion) voters. And yes, that includes the ones that are outside the South. I have yet to meet one that didn't fall into one of those categories.

Lie. I am living abroad now, so i surely met less Republicans then you are. But, despite it,  it's not simply lie, it's a blatant lie..

I guess that's why Republicans have historically done better in suburbs, usually win the college-educated vote (though they do lose the post-grad vote) and ROUTINELY win the richest income brackets comfortably?  LOL, your simplistic generalizations kind of explain why you're such a sh*tty poster, though.

Your party consistently wins the votes of the poorest Americans and the least educated (high school education or less), so I'm thinking you shouldn't throw stones...

Pfft! Please. Every study and survey shows that people with lower IQ's tend to vote Republican, as those that can't understand complex issues and have very simple thought processes are more attracted to right-wing ideology. Thus this is why the more educated you are, the more liberal you tend to be.

More idiocy, I am PH.D and have high IQ acoording to all tests. And i am not a "loonie moonbat", even more - i hate such moonbats almost as strongly as i hate tea-party right-wingers. Essentially they are the same: with opposite "sign". Both, for example, share your absolute intolerance of other views and absolute confidence that they are always right. Both are  (usually) so straightforward and singleminded in their judgements that one can only laugh at them. Both are attracted to simplistic nonworking "solutions" for all problems. And so on. And i must join in one practical advice you were given: get out of Ann Arbor and get real!! Life is much more complex then your idiotic stereotypes suggest.

I wish I was in Ann Arbor...

I'm from a small town 20 miles south of Flint, and about 60 miles north of Detroit. It's in a heavily Republican area where all the Republicans sound like Alan Keyes:

Your area is NOT a whole country. And it's a foolish thing to make a widespread generalizations based on  local area political behavoir...
