1. I guess it’s better than when newspapers just plagiarize the Big Line instead of just talking about it directly.

   1. There is a poll at the GJ Free Press. Currently there have been 184 votes and McInnnis leads Penry 86 (46.74%) to 67 (36.41%). Some other guy received the balance of the votes.

      Has your vote been counted?

2. Penry suddenly doesn’t have as big a problem with ColoradoPols as he did last week.

   1. Funny, though, he attacks Pols on his announcement, but is quick to add a story with a poll conducted by Pols. What an idiot! Attack this blog and then use it for his gain!

      UPDATE: Penry says we have it wrong (although other Polsters have heard the same thing — see comments). “When we settle on a time, date and a decision itself, I can assure you that the liberal bloggers over at Colorado Pols will not be the first to know,” he told the Grand Junction Sentinel.

3. The “Big Line” is the news?  Move over Las Vegas odds makers.  The funniest line though is:

   
   “When Penry declared his candidacy last month, the campaign said that it was seeking to raise $1,050 from 1,000 people, suggesting it needed at least $1 million for the political campaign.”

   Where does someone send that .95 cents?  Will he take pennies?  If Penry needs 1,052,631 donors, he’d might better get started.

4. Quoting a political blog as the sole source of how campaigns stand is the ultimate in laziness and lack of news judgment.

   And they call themselves a newspaper? Who reads it?
