Pols, why aren’t you spinning this? Do I smell fear?
What fear? It’s always been safe red CD and it’s still probably (I’d say certainly) going to Coffman. This time. Big deal. Oooo, we’re terrified. Especially we CD6ers, for whom an R winning the election is about as shocking as the sun coming up…again… the morning after.
Now 2014 and beyond could be a whole different story. That’s a lot better than no hope of a Dem ever winning in CD6 which is what we were stuck with before.
Pols has maybe gotten a little carried away with optimism, that’s all. But you’d know that if you paid any attention beyond just glancing at posts to find some excuse to use one of the Borg’s talking points.
He’s nothing but a paid shill — check out his web link.
People might as well try talking to Citibank, or Coca-Cola, during one of their television commercials . . .
Reasoning and explanation are a waste of anyone’s time; treat him like what he is, a fucking telemarketer.
I just know that you DO smell.
Ask Romney. How many hundreds of dollars did he pay for each vote in Iowa, compared to Santorum’s dollar and a half per vote? If the candidate can’t connect with the votes, no amount of money can fix that.
2. Coffman has no base in Aurora. Coffman’s only hope is the GOP unethically and/or illegally suppressing the Democratic vote, and with Gessler in office, that’s a real fear. Every attorney in metro Denver should be watching the election process in Aurora, on behalf of democracy.
You’re joking, right? Coffman has been winning elections with the votes of Aurora residents for 24 years. What you’re saying doesn’t square with the facts, even under he most generous interpretation.
.
That has got to be the most ridiculous thing you’ve ever put out there. I can see a difference of opinion as to whether Miklosi has a hope or not but to say that Coffman has absolutely no legitimate chance is simply absurd. What on eath are you smoking? Now let me guess…. Since I won’t tell you who I am , etc. etc. …
Yawn. It’s to be expected that Coffman will raise big bucks. However, if he didn’t need those bucks in this newly competitive field they’d be available to fund other candidates and issues.
That being said, I fear – yes, fear – Miklosi isn’t a big enough name to sink Coffman. At least not this year.
in any election.
on a seat that they have historically owned.
It is the 50 state strategy where you compete in every race and force Republicans to defend territory that they would automatically get by default.
Coffman raising big bucks means he knows he is going to have to do some actual campaigning and devote time on his race that he could have devoted to other Republican candidates.
This is going to be one fun race to watch him try and be all bad ass conservative in a new moderate district. Hope the Dems. have a candidate who can articulate the different visions for America (Nanny state in your womb assholes versus the 99%).
The need to spend more money. And it will be the case from now on in CD6 and it’s why Dem chances in 2014 and beyond will get better and better. But if Coffman wins this time, only Nancy will think it can only be explained by election stealing through voter suppression. Still shaking my head over that one.
Not the idea that Gessler is about voter suppression, just the idea that it’s the only way a not particularly unpopular incumbent with plenty of cash vs another obscure Dem (outside our little world, extremely obscure) without much money, can possibly win.
Coffman would still be the odds on favorite, even with the new boundaries and even if we had a Dem SOS.
Can’t buy the opposition research that’s going to come out on Coffman. Mark my words, and take heart. This will be the battle of the century, even if it is David vs. Goliath financially, and I don’t think it will be once the chum is in the water…
has paid off for Coffman
