And remember, Gardner is a great fit for Colorado. Rven if his approvals suck.
Stay the course, Senator. Some day they will thank you.
Cory Gardner is an ambitious man. He's cultivating foreign policy experience, especially with friendly dictators (Duterte) and heads of state (Qatar, Saudi Arabia, South Korea).
He's looking to transfer his brand of smiling glibberish to a wider role on the national stage.
The NRSC is just a stepping stone to that end.
So even if his Colorado constituents are over his grinning garbage, he'll have noticed that being unpopular at home hasn't held back Mike Pence. He's perfect vice Presidential material.
It's so hard for me to understand why Colorado traded in a good man, Mark Udall, for a seedy used car salesman. I'm sick of seeing Gardner's pasted-on smile as he sucks up to the NRA, McConnell, the rest of the senate leadership, and trump himself.
Several reasons:
1. Non-Presidential election year, leading to lower Democratic turnout
2. Poor strategy and tactics from Udall's campaign — not focused on his strengths, just abortion one-note campaign (also echoed in the media, ad nauseum)
3. Weak media coverage (only one or two reporters even tried to get him to tell the truth regarding his "No Federal Personhood Bill" claim), and the Denver Post management and editors whitewashed Cory's right-wing, anti-abortion track record (their editorial endorsement was sickeningly, and purposefully misleading)
4. Gardner is an extraordinarily talented "Eddie Haskell" who can filibuster his way past most inconvenient questions while looking harmless enough.
5. Let's not forget that Udall delivered his one and only campaign message with a nasty scowl on his face. Gardner stood before a wind farm and smiled while dishing out his bullshit.
Ronald Reagan proved the importance of appearance and style over substance.
Since the current “strategy” apparently involves nothing but round-the-clock lying, you couldn’t find two more qualified and sympatico vermin than Corwardly and Stormy’s john . . .
