DCCC pulls $1M in ads for Andrew Romanoff [ Colorado ]
Politico ^ | 10/10/14 | Alex Isenstadt

Posted on 10/11/2014 9:02:16 AM PDT by george76

National Democrats are canceling more than $1 million of planned commercial airtime for Colorado congressional candidate Andrew Romanoff — a sign of waning confidence in his prospects.

The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee had reserved $1.4 million for TV spending to boost Romanoff in the final two weeks of his race against Republican Rep. Mike Coffman. ..

Romanoff, a former state House speaker and unsuccessful 2010 Senate candidate, was once regarded as one of his party’s top 2014 hopefuls. But, with Republicans benefiting from a favorable national environment and Coffman running an energetic reelection campaign, Romanoff has seen his prospects dim.

...

The DCCC earlier announced this week that it would be pulling television funding in 13 GOP-held districts. Among the cold-blooded decisions was to cancel spending in the contest against Virginia Republican Barbara Comstock.

Andrew Romanoff was hurt by his toxic anti-gun baggage - that didn’t play well in Colorado.

Imagine having to run on that record. No wonder the Democrats pulled the plug on his campaign.

Hopefully, another gun-grabbing, Christian-hating,
Constitution-demeaning, adolescent Progressive may not be elected.

Thank goodness.

IMHO

Hopefully this means conservatives in Colorado are fighting back. When they legalized pot I thought the state would be lost to the lefties forever.

“Spend, spend, spend away.”

But

You are still going to go away.

And the Democratic leadership knows it.

The days of the Party Of Treason are ending.

Well then I hope a bunch of Democrats in Denver are too “mellow” on election day and stay home.

This is good stuff!

Here is another Colorado race that the press won’t talk about. Democrat Betsy Markey is running for state Treasurer. We don’t want her handling our money....

I’ll say this about the Democrats they get the maximum out of their “volunteers” every election day. I’d be wary of the Democrat “volunteers” in places like Kansas, Georgia, Kentucky, and other states where there are closely contested senate races.

There was another article a couple of days ago about the Rats pulling money for Mark Uterus TV ad buys after the Denver Post endorsement for Cory Gardner.

Looks like they’re pulling out of Colorado lock, stock, and barrel.

Good! Romanoff is a leftist nut job who could do great damage.
