    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?

    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".
