What is the big objection to Norton?
She’s in the best position to beat the Dem’s here in Colorado.

I believe that Ken Buck is more in tune with the conservatives here in Colorado. I have had the opportunity to meet Ken in person and he comes off as a genuine conservative who believes in many of the same ideas as I do. I also told him to his face that if he screws over the conservative movement after he wins his senate race his ass can and will be voted out of office.
Jane is disappointing on many fronts, the foremost being her refusal to attend the state assembly in Loveland. How will she stand up to the viciousness of the left and their agenda if she wont even attend her own party’s assembly. Boo-hoo I may not win so I am not even going to try.
State Senate #6 assembly is tommorrow and I am going to lobby as many people as I can to support Ken Buck. Not to mention our local Tea Party in Durango.
That being said, if Jane wins the primary I would still vote for her in the general. We fight our battles in the primary - that is why we have them.
"In Colorado, McCain and his meddlers infuriated the state party by anointing former Lt. Gov. Jane Norton to challenge endangered Democratic Sen. Michael Bennet. She's a milquetoast public official who has served on a lot of task forces and GOP clubs -- and who happens to be the sister-in-law of big Beltway insider Charlie Black. An estimated 40 percent of her coffers are filled with out-of-state money (and much of that is flowing from the Beltway).
The mini-McCain of Colorado claims to oppose "special interests," but has raised hundreds of thousands of dollars from D.C. lobbyists at McCain's behest -- stifling the candidacies of strong conservative rivals led by grassroots-supported Weld County District Attorney Ken Buck, an amnesty opponent whose aggressive illegal-immigration prosecutions have earned him the rage of the far left and big-business right. A recent Rasmussen poll showed Buck and GOP candidate Tom Wiens beating Bennet -- despite the huge cash and crony advantage of frontrunner and blank-slate Norton."
