Maes cannot win. Everyday there is new information coming out about Maes that will make Hickenlooper a shoe in. The man appears to be a con artist, and really will do damage to the Republican party in this state.
There are some things you don’t screw up. For instance, if an elderly woman claims that she gave you a LARGE cash donation, and her donation did not show up on your list of donations, don’t screw up giving the money back to her. Don’t give her the wrong amount, don’t not sign the check.
Don’t lie about things like being an undercover cop in another state.
The list goes on.
I wasn’t aware of what you told me. Thanks for the information. Still it looks bad no matter how you slice it according to realclearpolitics.com:

A vote against Maes is more than just a vote against the candidate. It's also a vote against his supporters—a faction that, in my opinion, is turning the Colorado Republican Party to crap. Having Maes as Governor would energize them and put them in the driver's seat.
This also includes some <airquotes>Tea Parties and 9/12 Groups</airquotes> who started off as protests against statism, but then ran off the rails when they degenerated into herds of sheeple who vote for random, unvetted underdogs that their leaders tell them to vote for.
