Tom Tancredo to Run for Colorado Governor

[Bailey Guns]

It's a little early in the game, but if Tancredo is the R candidate for governor, I'd vote for him.

But I don't get all giddy about him...he's not my ideal candidate though we'll see if anyone better will apply for the job. I'd still like to see Terry Maketa run though I don't know much about him other than his stand on the recent gun control issues.

Seems like a few of you have some short memories about Tancredo:

April 5 [2000] - Conservative Republican U.S. Rep. Tom Tancredo, the congressman from Columbine, is supporting the statewide gun-control initiative to close the "gun-show loophole." "I support anything that is designed to keep guns out of the hands of people who shouldn't have them, and this fits," Tancredo said. "This is a reasonable gun-control provision."

Yeah, Tom...we're all about those "common sense" and "reasonable" gun-control provisions...just like it says in the 2A. He also scores a B+ from the NRA which indicates he's had some problems at times with his stance on gun issues.

But, I'd vote for him all day long and twice on Sun over ANY democrat.

ETA: Just saw the post by roberth...Brophy would be a good candidate as well. I'd consider him over Tancredo.
