Discussion for article #224828
Click bait headline
Is it the candidates being wishy washy or us not getting them enough support so that they don’t have to worry so much?
Neither. Faux news.
Its about trying to create the meme that republicans are going to win big in 2014.
“a Senate Democrat in danger of losing this fall”
This is a Senator who has a 4:1 advantage in money, and has never been behind in any legitimate polls. (Which I will admit have been very sparse from Colorado so far)
“Udall is one of several Democratic senators at risk of losing their seat this fall, putting Senate control within GOP reach for the first time during Obama’s presidency. Losing control of the Senate would be devastating to Obama’s chances of passing any major legislation in his final two years in office, though his prospects may be little better if Democrats hang on to the Senate and Republicans maintain their majority in the House.”
That paragraph alone should make the writers bent quite clear.
It’s an AP article. I always take their stuff with a huge grain of salt.
Cory Gardner is another one of those GOP candidates who looked real good on paper; in real life, on the campaign trail…not exactly.
CO is chicken shit. No Bama bots because of what? Having coverage allowed with a pre existing condition?
What the hell does that mean?
LOLWUT
Yeah, they’ve been working on that one for a while. Like since 2007. If they keep predicting it, the law of averages will kick in and they’ll just luck into being right.
Udall will smash this teabagging bozo that walks in Tom Tancredo’s shoes and Ken Bucks footsteps. Colorado has it’s own version of right-wing crazy but we keep putting down the rabid dogs. Abortion laws and gun freedom only excites the wackos.
Way to puss out, Mark.
Stand with the president and you will surely WIN.
Acting like a scared kitten isn’t going to convey ANY advantage.
Yes, truly looking like a weenie is Mark Udall. Rather than being proud of what he is, he is trying to hide it like the nutbags don’t know.
Way to piss off everyone and gain nothing Udall.
I think Udall made a smart move. A lot of Americans are increasingly pissed off at Obama, especially from his track record…
-Historic healthcare reform
-Economic recovery from the worst recession in modern times
-Extricating the US from two foreign wars
-Implementing new environmental protections despite Congress
I think we should impeach him for all of these before he completely ceeds the Congress to the Republicans!
“Increasingly unpopular President”. Where the fuck do they get this stuff.
They get it from the parallel world they occupy where people with phones say uninformed things in response to uninformed questions. Democrats need to wrap their arms around the president, it’ll make them look better and even honest.
