Authenticity without meanness just might play well as relief from our currently toxic times.
I live in CO and am not impressed with this guy. He is 100% political coward. He approved a child prison for little kids separated from their parents to be set up not far from Denver. He should have a little courage like Oregon which refused to cooperated with ICE in child prison camps. He is not substantially different from all the rest of these lying cowardly politicians. We don’t need any more Hickenloopers destroying out lives and country. See that grimace on his face, nothing authentic here, a showboat greed machine.
I like him enough but he’s not a star. Democrats, I keep reading, need a blazing star to get them to go out and save the world from Armageddon.
I like Hick. A no bullshit pragmatist who can work with opposing sides to reach compromise. A breath of fresh mountain air.
Same here. Hickenlooper wasn’t a terrible governor, but he always sided with the donor class over the people of Colorado. He fought tooth and nail to prevent communities from being able to ban fracking.
Michael Bennet is an example of everything that’s wrong with the Democratic Party - a complete corporatist.
