I have to say, I'm not really worried about this one.

Being an optimist versus being a realist I see.

Judging by how Hickenlooper is doing so much better than Udall in the same poll, I'm guessing Udall's numbers are lower because A) He's less well known (Therefore he's basically Generic D) and B) Is more tied to the national mood (And Obama).


That said, I'm still not worried. Udall is a perfect fit for Colorado and I'm confident he wins.

You mean a perfect fit for New York or some far left state.

The all-mail voting system Colorado is moving to virtually guarantees a Udall win.

Yeah, it's prone to fraud and people voting more than once.

I'm guessing you'd say that about any senator with a D next to their name

So if a GOP candidate ran in California, he would be too far right then? Sure if you want to use that logic.
