Sentinel Sticks with G.O.Bs - Endorses Ray ("Next in Line!") Scott for Latest Disgraced Mesa Pol's Senate Seat

In the 'No Surprises' category the Grand Junction Daily Sentinel toed the ~~Niobrara-West~~ Grand Junction Chamber line and endorsed the odiously corrupt Good Old Boys' anointed representative for the good sheeple of Mesa County.

That would be esteemed state representative Ray "I don't pass legislation but I do take per diem" Scott.

The Sentinel seemed particularly impressed that Scott was able to use complete sentences and mention activity other than drilling the world.

To our surprise, Scott is no longer advancing a singular “drill, baby, drill” solution to the region’s economic woes.

But Scott has the opportunity to be the senior member of Mesa County’s legislative delegation and we might finally see a payoff for his experience (admittedly over our objections) in the Legislature. He seems humbled by the last session and more attuned to the nuances of effective representation.

Among Rep. Scott's noted 'accomplishments'? He sponsored a bill (that failed) and invited the Gov to another town outside Scott's district to talk shop.

He was able to get Democratic Gov. John Hickenlooper to meet for a Western Slope economic summit in Glenwood Springs. He also gathered bipartisan support for a bill to establish a task force to study the state’s K-12 testing system.

And although he is a 'fiscal conservative' he hopes to bring both more state and more federal taxpayer money to prop up the GOP-GOBs machine in the county and fuel public sector jobs:

…establishing research facilities in conjunction with CMU to attract federal funding.

What a complete crock..Ray Scott is an embarrassment, but he kisses Diane Schwenkes' ring and David Ludlams' ass so he is "da man" to the Daily "What would our advertisers think if we endorsed the most qualified candidate?" Sentinel.

Not surprising, though. The Sentinel has shown a history of political cowardice….
