Opinion: Joe O’Dea invests in his workers and the communit
Colorado Sun ^ | Sep 1, 2022 | Hank Brown and Cole Wist

If there’s a candidate for elected office more honest, ethical, and authentic than Joe O’Dea, we’d be surprised.

Indeed, national journalists have called O’Dea one of the best candidates anywhere in the country. O’Dea’s an American success story, who is a rare blend of candor, decency and strength.

The campaign by [Democrats] to smear the good name of Joe O’Dea — an honest man trying to do good for a country that badly needs balanced leadership — is misleading and wrong. ... Even traditional mainstream media at the New York Times, the Washington Post and NBC News have loudly condemned the smear campaign against O’Dea.

O’Dea and his construction firm make significant investments in our community as well. O’Dea and Concrete Express have donated millions of dollars in labor, construction supplies, and engineering know-how to Father Woody’s Haven of Hope, a homeless shelter in Denver ...

Like his business, O’Dea’s campaign has been ethical and honest. O’Dea spent months in the Republican Primary telling pro-life audiences and conservative talk show hosts he disagreed with them on abortion, that he would vote to codify Roe vs. Wade, but that he hoped the GOP would back him because he would attack inflation, cut the debt and support the police and military. O’Dea told Donald Trump supporters that the former president was wrong to deny the 2020 election’s outcome. Many times, they booed. He smiled and said he hoped to earn their vote because the country needs to come together. Joe O’Dea has said he hopes Trump doesn’t run (he doesn’t think Biden should either) and he will campaign for another contender … if he does. ...

Adopted at birth and raised by a cop in working class Denver neighborhoods, Joe has built a great American success story. ...

He won’t win! That poll from The Hill was a psyop. That poll was released so the money would be spent there instead of AZ, NV, PA or GA.

I don’t care how many good things he has done.

NO AMERICAN VOTER should be expected to ignore blatant cheating on ANY election.

I have issues with O’Dea but he is as good a “republican” as we can get here.

O’Dea is a pro-abortion RINO who said he would codify Roe v. Wade.

He will not get votes from any of my family members.

O’Dea is a RINO’s RINO, basically another Romney and an announced anti-trumper ...

O’Dea and Liz Cheney would get along well together. Dems love them a good RINO until they don’t

Much as I’d like to dump Bennett, might have to pass on him. I want the Senate but not like this.

If the New York Times, the Washington Post and NBC News are for this "Republican" then I would have serious concern if I lived in Colorado.

Otoh, if the alternative is 6 more years of a Dem senator, what is one to do?

There's is a lot not to like about O'Dea, but if he doesn't win, then there will be at least two more years of a Democrat-controlled Senate.

Who do you want to be the chairmen of all the Senate committees? Democrats or Republicans?

Not my problem. Not going to vote for a candidate who has no problem murdering babies.

I am inclined to agree with you.
