Brophy or Tancredo Poll

[UrbanWolf]

No BS discussion about 1% vs 99%. I just want to see how our member feel about those two.

For me it's Brophy, I've met and talked to him. He has a strong stance for gun rights, and if we can to repeal to laws we need someone who has a strong opinion about it.

Brophy doesn't have tancredos baggage. I actually like tancredo, he doesn't seem electable though.

What you mean by baggage and "doesn't seem electable"?

I like Tancredo but the only way I'm voting for him is if he wins the Republican primary. Brophy has the right positions and attitudes without Tancredo's baggage.

I like Tanc as well and his no bs stance is sorely needed now. But I will agree he has said some stupid crap in the past and the lefties have capitalized on it quite well and smeared him in the mud.
Can you imagine the negative ad campaign if he became the GOP candidate?
Plus I fear he is too far in the right wing to be electable in this state now.

I met Brophy by chance while picking up some .45 over at Denver Bullets the other night. He seemed like a good guy in general and even knew about HB-1043, which is IMO is worse than either the BGC or Mag laws. I asked what his plan was to repeal all of these laws and got a very generic answer. I told him about this forum, our support for the recalls and generally how active we all are in politics. I also told him the guys on here would want more specifics than he was giving. I don't think Tancredo is electable (too much bagage as others have said. There are too many news bites that make him sound like the guy in Missouri) but Brophy needs to show us a specific plan. I don't know Brophy much at all, just what I have heard on here and a one time 20 min meeting with the guy. I left with a good impression overall but also that itch on the back of my neck wondering if he is for real or just another politician telling you what you want to hear. I told him there are threads on this forum about him and he should get an account to give us his plan. I think that if he does this.... It could go a long way towards scratching that itch for alot of us on here.

I don't know a lot about Brophy, but the way he handled himself during last legislative session made me a big fan. I didn't know he was running. I hope he's the candidate.

[Jamnanc]

He's said too many stupid things and made himself out to be a racist in the last election. Lost the softer conservatives and definitely lost the swing voters long ago. He also pissed me off when he split the vote to ensure lickenpooper didn't have opposition last go around. He puts himself above the party. Do you want me to find the specific faux pas from four years ago or are you familiar with them?

[TFOGGER]

If I recall correctly, Brophy is a member here. Tancredo has alienated an awful lot of people with his stances of immigration and welfare (not necessarily wrong, but not mainstream).

Brophy em's us with up to date info. Tancredo only when he want's money. I like Tom and do believe he is on the right track. Unfortunately the media, gang of 4 and OOS special interest groups have a serious ax to grind, after 2 recalls and 1 forced resignation of their Anti-Gun legislatures.
Get tom on the ballot and every penny they have will be spent to discredit, paint him as a racist (illegal amnesty stand) homophobe, child molester, you name it.
