Quote of the Day
"With respect to Hank Eng's campaign, one of the problems with the campaign is that it started a little bit late and he wasn't able to get his name out; he wasn't able to get his message out and so nobody knew who he was. And that's something that I'm not going to allow to happen in my campaign."

Udall Is a Chameleon...
Udall was a moonbat for years, and now he is flipping on the oil situation. Awesome! The march to the middle continues. Now we just need him to pledge to vote against the Employee Free Choice Act, and he will be everybody's big bi-partisan buddy, which is what he is always calling for...
Yeah! The switch on oil was
Yeah! The switch on oil was big, almost unpredictable. He's rarely publicized his stance on the labor bill, but i'm interested to see how the hippies from boulder react to his epic switch...
Have you seen the new
Have you seen the new union/EFCA ads on TV against Udall? Think they start began running. Udall better watch his back on this issue because it is becoming a hot one…
How in the world...
How is Mark Udall leading by 6 in the polls? Bet the race is going to be closer than that come November. Especially if Udall keeps flip-flopping on oil and choosing big labor and union bosses over workers in Colorado.
