Just a bunch of hand-wringing.
Miklosi’s 1st ad was awkward beyond all get out. It was almost painful to watch.
This ad kicks ass. Exactly what they should have been up with the whole time.
We’re just interested in the strategy here.
so Udall can carve him up in the 2014 Senate race?
Coffman will stomp Miklosi so hard this year that everyone will be thinking twice about Udall’s chances. Including Udall.
Can’t say I blame you. You’ve got almost nothing good to anticipate this year.
and local leaders like Ed Knox and Betty Harris were smart people to film. I do agree with Pols however, that Joe’s next ad needs to be ABOUT JOE and his values. Joe grew up in a working class family in the heartland, learning about public service from his family. He has a great story. He just needs to tell it!
He wants to take away all birth control and deny anyone an abortion … and wants to rape you too ….. he voted to take food out of veterans and babies mouths … and deny them entry into hospitals … he wants to firebomb day care centers and put you back in chains!!!!
Blah, blah, lah …. Miloski has like 30% name ID, comes off a chubby in his ads and the supporting cast/production are crappy.
I’d expect more form DCCC and their super PAC corporate bank accounts and consultants if I were Mikoloski …. and if I were Perlmutter I’d be pissed that Mikloski is taking the green oxygen out of the room.
Look it up, ‘tad. No spin. No deception. Fact.
Seriously, what is wrong with you?
but almost everyone who has any idea who either one of them is, never voted for Coffman in the first place. They are medium sized fish in a really, really, really small pond. They are fine hardworking people who do great work organizing in the tiny universe of people who are active Dem volunteers but almost no one watching this ad will know who they are. Still like the ad, though.
Compared to the Coffman crowd’s anti-Miklosi, anti-Canadian ad? It looked like a spoof ad you’d see on South Park. I think both both Miklosi ads are make solid points and best of all they exist. There generally hasn’t been money for CD6 d congressional candidates to compete on TV.
I have no intention of voting for Coffman, esp. in light of his work to undermine private space (which SHOULD be our next internet boom, except that the republican party and few foolish dems are working hard to gut it).
BUT, both Miklosi and Polhemus are absolutely worthless.
Miklosi says that he wants to help create jobs. Yet, at the same time, he does done nothing. He was even offered to work on a group that is up the alley that he supports. His statement back was once it was off the ground, and going, THEN he would consider it.
Nor does he offer up any new or innovative ideas for creating jobs.
Miklosi speaks against AGW, and continues to support cap/trade, which has zero chance of passage. Yet, again,he misses the opportunity to come up with new and innovative ideas on how to solve this issue.
New and innovative ideas for Budget and Trade Deficits, etc. ?
Not a one. Not a single one.
Our manufacturing? Nothing.
OTOH, he does believe that we should not discriminate against motorcyclists and has worked to stop that. It is just great that he is willing to work on that one.
And Polhemus? Well, she says that we desperately need compromise, and we do. Yet, I continue to get ads from her saying that she will not compromise on the issues of illegals. Basically, she wants anybody here that is here and to open up the border more.
Yet, you KNOW that it will never fly with the voters, let along the congress.
New and innovative ideas for jobs, AGW, Budget and Trade Deficits, etc. ?
Not a one. Not a single one.
If you look over her site, she would not share her information until she was called out on it. Then her site was updated PARTIALLY.
I suspect that I will do a write in of NOTA.
(CD2’s Centimillionaire Jared Polis being an exception, perhaps), so the question of whom to vote for in CD6 among Coffman, Miklosi or Polhemus can be distilled into the question:
Do you want a reliable GOP vote, Democratic vote, or a wild card (tending to GOP)?
I don’t particularly care if Joe introduces 50 pieces of legislation or not in his first term. I do, however, want another Democratic House vote supporting the President’s agenda.
She’s actually pretty liberal. Possibly more than Miklosi. Unless you were referring to her being a spoiler.
I do not support this president’s agenda of corporatism and foreign wars.
more about Joe defining Joe but I don’t think those who don’t live in CD6 can quite understand the extent to which Coffman has been considered a reasonable kind of guy, not extreme. Now the distrct is more purple but the perception still needs to be changed.
Lots of stuff has come out in the last year that ought to change that perception but most voters are too low info to have noticed. They just think Coffman; vet, mainstream.
Ads like this are absolutely necessary to get people’s attention and show them the real Coffman if there is to be any chance of people reconsidering just who the guy is.
