Who would have thunk it? One of the most liberal Newspapers in the USA, The Denver Post, is endorsing Cory Gardner (R) over the incumbent, Mark Udall (D), for Senator from Colorado. This has GOT to be a first for the Post but I'm glad to see it. Gardner is still a bit too middle-of-the-road for my tastes but Udall voted with Obama 99% of the time and pushed a very unpopular "Obamacare" on an unsuspecting public. Udall's entire campaign surrounds a single issue: "a woman's right to choose." Unfortunately, this tactic is backfiring because Colorado women feel insulted that Udall believes he can win ALL women's votes when there are so many other, unaddressed issues facing Colorado women and families. More than 300,000 Coloradans had their insurance policies cancelled (thanks to Obama and Udall) resulting in a lot of angry citizens (Liberals and Conservatives alike).
I've already sent my ballot in and cast a vote for Gardner over the brain-dead, Udall.
Denver Post endorses Rep. Gardner over Sen. Mark Udall
Washington (CNN) -- The Denver Post Editorial Board endorsed Republican House Rep. Cory Gardner on Friday, just six years after it backed Gardner's opponent Democratic Sen. Mark Udall for the position.
"Congress is hardly functioning these days. It can't pass legislation that is controversial and it often can't even pass legislation on which there is broad agreement. Its reputation is abysmal, and even its members rarely dispute the popular indictment," the editorial board said in a statement.
"It needs fresh leadership, energy and ideas, and Cory Gardner can help provide them in the U.S. Senate."
Denver Post endorses Rep. Gardner over Sen. Mark Udall - CNN.com"Gardner has sound ideas on tax reform that could help the economy take off and has expressed willingness to compromise on immigration despite a fairly hard line over the years. And his stance on defense spending appears closer to those of Rep. Mike Coffman, who favors restraint, than to those in the GOP who view the military as sacrosanct," the statement said.
