ELECTION 2014 - Merged Threads

[PugnacAutMortem]

I am absolutely shocked at the amount of bitching I am reading on here. The national races literally couldn't have went any better for the Republicans. Obama is about ready to ruin any chance the Democrats have in 2016 by waving his pen around and executive action-ing himself and democrats into oblivion. Hickenlooper won by the smallest of margins against a candidate that has already ran and lost the governors race to arguably a worse democrat than Hick is (Ritter). The State Senate went your way, the state House looks like it's going to swing your way too (possibly). Hick isn't going to be able to do anything for the next four years if that's the case. All of the propositions everybody wanted voted down were defeated...

Seriously, what the fuck are all of you bitching about? You should be running through the streets naked and drunk with happiness. Jesus H Christ...

And you are very angry as usual. Hope you have a nice day.

I'm ecstatic over the victories, but arguably one of the worst governor's in my lifetime won a second term. So I can't bitch about it?

While i am not one to agree with you. In this case, while the .guv is still Hick. The wins overcome the loss. To take the offices you mentioned is Very Big. IMO it's the equivalent of Congress & senate being in R control with a Lamer duck president.

I'll say it again. The numbers for Beauprex were way beyond what i thought they would have been. I thought / felt Hick would run away this election cycle. Not only didn't he. BUT this does send a message to him and other's

Consider yourself / us lucky we don't have a Cuomo mentality for guv.

Consider yourself / us lucky we don't have a Cuomo mentality for guv.

Isn't a Bloomberg whipping boy just as bad?

[hurley842002]

Consider yourself / us lucky we don't have a Cuomo mentality for guv.

I can't disagree with you there, but I was only speaking of Colorado Guvs.

Doing such a thing does not conform to my conservative nature. A bit too self indulgent, free-spirited and, well, liberal. Bitching about small things... well that fits squarely with my normal habits.

Yay for the Senate flip, yay for House plus up but in the end all politics are local. I wanted Hickenlooper crushed. I wanted his political career to end so he can go back to bar-tending. I wanted him humiliated for his lack of moral spine and his lack of professional responsibility. I'm happy Maryland picked an R Gov, I'm happy NC kicked out Hagen. It's good to see nation wide but I live in Colorado and for me personally, all the other national races amount only so much interest to me. I wanted CO to become red and it's not. It doesn't matter about Sec State, Treasurer, Attorney General. It was Hickenlooper that mattered and we came up short. The Ds will see this is a win even with Gardner winning and they are right.
Next time around we will have to knuckle down and try even harder but it will be harder and harder and harder if we can't turn the governor mansion.

Secretary of State matters a hell of a lot. He and the county clerks run elections.

To steal an election, you don't need to control the ballots, just who counts them.

How do you think yesterday would have gone with a Dem SoS?
