Quote of the Day
September 5, 2008
"Colorado's not all of a sudden a liberal state. It hasn't moved to the left. It's been a few people who have dumped several million dollars in it. But what they've done is (Democrats) have run people who don't have voting records."
-- Rich Beeson, political director for the Republican National Committee.
