I believe the Colorado seat is one targeted by Dems. I heard on Morning Joe that of all the Senate Seats that Dems think they have a shot at sided with Trump on this except Collins. Either she’s the only one smart enough or scared enough to realize their time is up.
I really hope we get the AZ, CO and ME seats + 3 more.
Let’s remember to throw out the U.S. Representatives, not only the senators, who voted against this bill to stop the wall. This list includes the Colorado U.S. Rep.Scott Tipton. This spineless dishonest rich boy from Cortez, CO needs to be thrown out along with the toilet waste in 2020 too.
They couldn’t help not mentioning Pres. Obama, but kudos for calling Gardner out.
“These are extraordinary times,” it continues. “This is a bogus emergency that takes executive overreach to an extreme not seen even under President Barack Obama. Trump’s declaration is an abuse of his power, a direct overturning of Congress’ deliberate decision to pass a federal budget without funding for a wall. Put simply this is a constitutional crisis and one of Colorado’s two senators has failed the test.”
“If you don’t stand for something, you’ll fall for anything.” Gardner is acting in his own interests, not those of the voters.
The way things are going for him, by 2020 Gardner will be lucky to even be able to score some weed in Colorado.
I read that as a preemptive statement to bouts of “whataboutism” from conservative readers - by pointing out that this exceeds those “whatabouts”.
I know it is premature, way premature, but I can almost hear a distant chorus made by the fans of a victorious sports team at the vanquishing of their rival team “na na na na… na na na na… hey hey… good-bye”.
That is a harsh public rebuke by the Post. And I love it!
It must be a pretty conservative paper to have endorsed Gardner over Udall in 2014.
!!!
The Dems could nominate my neighbor’s dog for this seat, and he’d still make a better senator than Gardner. Who’s a good boy, Otis? Who’s a good boy?
Denver Post: not staffed with (AP) writers
Obviously, it is a bit late for pulling endorsements (4+ years after that disaster), but at least it appears they will not make the same mistake in less than 2 years (?)
“Even” is the word that makes it offensive. “An executive overreach to an extreme not seen under Presidents Obama and Bush” would be acceptable.
Well, they called out the senator, but they erred in endorsing a Republican at all. I’m sure they’ll repeat that action in the future, to their detriment. And they had to backtrack and blame Obama under the official and apparently eternal Republican talking point. Surprised they didn’t also call for investigating HRC.
OMG!!! This is awesome, Clunkertruck! I’m dyin’ over here! !!!
I think we take the Senate in 2020. The question is can we keep the House.
