“former U.S. Sen. Hank Brown” is the candidate that should replace Maes!!!!

Hank would beat Hick like a drum!

Expect “Little Ricky” Lazio to drop out of the Gov. race in New York soon

the county GOP leaders are dropping support in favor of Paladino (Tea Party Candidate)

Little Ricky only has $400,000 left to go against Andrew Cuomo’s $20million.

Carl has pledged $10 million of his OWN money to fight Cuomo.

NOTE: A Republican groundswell in NY could sweep Chucky Schumer AND Hillary place-holder out of the Senate- a Pickup of TWO

Whom would Tancredo like to see replace Maes?

I think he wanted Hank Brown, but Brown isn’t interested. But, Brown has withdrawn his endorsement of Maes and will not endorse Tancredo.

What a cluster....

I blame:

Scott McInnis for being a greedy, plagiarizing idiot

Dan Maes for being an idiot

Colorado GOP voters for picking the idiot too idiotic to step aside

I doubt it matters who we get if TT is pulling out 15-20 percent of our total

TT says he will drop out if Maes does. Who knows.

Tank will drop out if Bob B. wants in. Brown not going to run. Bob is a good man, has a good sense of the split nature of Colorado between urban/rural/west slope issues.

I don’t think Hick is as easy to beat as the article implies, but Maes is damaged goods and needs to get out. He will be sacrificed by the PTB in the CO Republician party if he stays in.

The Tea Party needs to do a better job of screening their preferred candidates.

It definitely is that. Arrogant people only thinking of themselves and not what is good for the state. Dan Maes is a complete joke.

Hey, from what I read it sounds like Maes needs a job.

You're right, idiots all 'round. I wish Josh Penry hadn't dropped out. He'd be outstanding.

I like Dick Wadhams but I’ll throw an idiot bone his way, too, for trying to annoint McInnis/Norton. Healthy primary competition is good for campaigns and sometimes your frontrunner self-destructs or you find a diamond in the rough.

Thanks for posting his name. I couldn't think of it for the life of me.

Ok, I am going to get flamed for this but here goes.

Jane Norton. (*ducking*)

She has the name recognition, fundraising capability, and organization. I am in favor of *anyone* over Hick aka “Mr. Recreate68”. Plus it would bring out some of the RINO’s who were going to stay home or vote against Buck.

In this case, I will take 1/2 a loaf.

What about Lazio v Killengrand or whatever the name of Hillary’ replacement is?
