So you can either whine about "choice of evils" or "I don't like the republican candidate because he isn't perfect" or "abortion" or whatever and "vote your conscience" and get Hickenlooper elected or you can vote for the republican candidate. It's that simple whether you like it or not.

Because don't forget...your "choice of evils" is also going to include Hickenlooper.

And with a very good chance of winning the house and senate in the state this year, we can either put Hickenlooper back in office or come together and vote for the alternative. Of course, if you "vote your conscience" and vote for a libertarian candidate or whomever, you'll have the luxury of bitching about Hickenlooper for another 4 years.


I'm no fan of Beauprez and Brophy's endorsement has me scratching my head but let's face it, any candidate you agree with 100% (if there is such a thing) is going to piss off roughly 80% of the non-Democrat voters with 10-20% of his or her stances. I don't see why so many people seem to think it's okay to let someone they disagree with 80% of the time get the office because they only agree 80-90% with the opponent.
