On the other hand the Post had a glowing endorsement for Hick the other day. No real surprise there of course.

When you believe you have seen the utmost of one's stupidity they never cease to amaze you and go one step further.
How bad does a Dem have to be to lose the Denver ComPost's endorsement? Guess we have a clue ...

I think they quietly endorsed Gardner so that closer to election day they can make a huge deal about him doing ____. Then all the local TV stations can say "breaking story" the Post is dropping their endorsement of Gardner and strongly endorsing Udick.

I am surprised as well. I think Udall really blew it by going negative from the very beginning, and until just recently, running a single issue campaign. Most voters just don't care about abortion, and the "war on women" crap is insulting and turning off a lot of voters. I guess when you have absolutely nothing concrete and positive to run on then you just have to make stuff up. The Post editorial board was probably holding their noses when they wrote this endorsement. They are still a bunch of libs o matter what.
The Grand Junction Daily Sentinel, the largest newspaper on the Western Slope, has also endorsed Gardner. That's almost a surprise since the new(ish) publisher is an apparent left winger and the editorial staff writings have been more wishy-washy leftist for the past few years.

I doubt that they wanted to do it- I think it's likely because the editors want the Post appear "fair and balanced". They weren't going to throw in against Hick, so they're throwing Udall under the bus using a shoddy campaign to justify their decision.
