Very impressed -- Gardner could turn out to be an even stronger candidate than Land.
I'd like to see a PPP poll. Udall only led Buck 46/42 in their December poll.
CO's a fairly polarized state, and I can't imagine too many Republican supporters don't like Buck -- it was that Buck motivated Democrats in a way that Gardner wouldn't. I'd think Gardner and Udall are tied in the low 40s.
I'd like to see a PPP poll too, and see how much it exaggerates Udall's numbers.
Ken Buck running for Safe R CO-4.
Gardner now running for Senate against Mark Udall.
Things just got a lot better for the GOP. This is probably another Michigan where republicans could have a good chance of an extra pickup on a really good night. If Udall was only up by 4 against Buck, then he might actually be in some trouble. Lean D for now until I get some more perspective.
Also, Sabato has moved this from Likely D to Lean D.
CO-4 isn't safe R. Gardner won it by beating Betsey Markey in 2010.
