Welcome to the Colorado AR-15 Shooters Club Discussion Forums.
Maes and Tancredo together (47.56%) still didn't get enough votes to defeat Dickinpooper (51.01%). Maybe a more unified front would have helped shift voter turnout enough, though, so who knows?Originally Posted by jim

The R's were bellowing Party trumps person, especially with Maes. I believe some just had a mad on for Tancredo as he was pushing buttons asking the R's to take a stand on Immigration.
How many stayed home?
Between the Hard Core conservative no shows, since Romney wasn't "Conservative enough" And the 3rd party vote that 4% made a lot of difference.
The other item will be for any R to shut up about abortion and gays. Your personal beliefs great, just do a hick and wait till elected to "stand on principle".

Well poof, he's got my vote. "In March, Hickenlooper told Denver's 9NEWS that he didn't think his gun-control efforts would jeopardize his re-election hopes." Far as I'm concerned, that's is exactly what will take him down
my thoughts exactly.HELL YEAH TANCREDO FOR GOVERNOR!

Getting conservatives to the polls will be the key, that means organizing and collectively getting voters to the polls. You better believe the libtards will.

Well put, Jim.

Honest politician? LOL. In any case, I'll consider voting for him again if he is on the ballot.

No I have no one else in mind. I also like Tancredo. I voted for him and would do so again, but c'mon, face facts, here in Democrap Kolorado we are just bullsh---ing ourselves if we think we stand any chance of any true conservative, or even a right leaning candidate winning any important election. It's like believing in unicorns.
