Gardner: I saw no Blue Wave in Colorado. Just ask Governor-elect Stapleton. He won, because I'm not counting illegal votes.
This garbage works on the MAGA morons every time. That's why they do it. But Gardner is got a hell of a Jedi mind trick ahead if he wants to win a second term. I bet he pulls out.
I do too. He will announce that he wants to spend more time with the wife and kids, and as such, accepted a lobbying position. Or will join the Koch.
Cory's been sucking Koch for a long time now.
Club for Growth ($97,552) and Koch Industries ($42,200) have been among Cory's top 5 contributors from 2013-2018.
Somebody remind me how many billions of dollars that Rick Scott's company got from Medicare via fraud? Moderatus? Powerful Pear?
$1.7 billion according to Politifact. Moderatus and PP would call this "fake news". The Justice Department in 2002 called the fraud by Rick Scott's company "the "largest health care fraud case in U.S. History."
Or a "hoax." Or a "witch hunt." Which George Soros, Hillary Clinton and CNN concocted. Let's not omit any of the buzz words.
The Columbia/HCA Corporation SETTLED suits for $1.7 billion. That's what could be clearly proven in a legal pleading and served as the basis for the corporation agreement to pay.
My recollection is fuzzy … but I believe I remember the original claimed dollar amounts were over a billion in each of the two cases.
Moddy and Pear will say it was nuisance value which his company paid to move on with his life.
It was a nuisance value to the company, and Rick Scott still got wealthy on it.
Cory lies down with dogs, and is now waking up with fleas.
I'll be glad when he's up for re-election because it sure will be nice to scrape that turd off our shoe. So far, he's been called the most vulnerable Republican and I can't imagine two more years of Trump's presidency will do him any good.
Don't forget, charlie, Cory has a god…his name is $$$$$$. Wherever Cory lands will be nice and soft.
Gardner will be the biggest and easiest national target for democrats to remove in 2020. I do agree that I doubt if he even runs.
Speaking of which, I just watched Gardner on Jake Tapper's SOTU. If he said "violating the Florida constitution" one more time………. If only he showed the same high regard for the U.S. Constitution, he might not come across as such a sycophant.
P.S. Nice optics though. Cory's graying hair, blue windbreaker, and red tractor in the background made for a nice photo op. Maybe he's angling to be the first governor elected of the State of Northern Colorado.
I just watched it myself. Well, listened to it, mostly as I find watching Cory speak has not become more bearable with the passage of time. Cory and his handlers have been focused on optics for a long time. Cory dreams of being the president of the US. Hence his posture vis a vis T***ps' rectum.
Corys' greatest skill is kissing wealthy asses.
No f*cking way. While many of my colleagues know and praise Gardner's "fine family", he himself is not popular here. He dodges his constituents at restaurants; he ducks out of conversations on the street. Having a nice smile and mumbling platitudes only gets one so far.
He drives his tractor away from teenagers trying to talk to him about DACA (about 3:57 in the linked video), and does not make time to talk with them about their concerns.
It took the disabled activists of ADAPT two days of occupying his office just to get a conversation with the dude.
As far as the "51st state" of Northern Colorado seceding, forget that too. In the last election, northern Colorado Democratic activists increased registration of Democrats, women, and young people, particularly unaffiliated people, for the highest -ever voter participation in a midterm election in our areas.
We had the highest number of people voting for Democratic candidates in our counties, and contributed respectably to the statewide candidates, even though our local candidates generally didn't break the 30% threshold.
Latinx and refugee populations continue to grow and to become voting citizens in Morgan county. They're not registering as Republicans. Democrats are gaining voters, while Republicans, through their destructive tariff policies, *rumpf's disrespect for veterans, catering to racists, and erratic conduct in general, continue to lose voters.
IMHO, the biggest target is Sen. Collins. She's facing a decline in approval ratings (after Kavanaugh hearings -9), campaign funding pledges against her ($3.5-4 million), a set of national political volunteers for her opponent (whoever that may be) already forming, and Maine's ranked choice voting that will diminish any "alternate candidate" vote impact.
Cory will clearly be a national target — but unless there is a Democratic self-funder who wants to oppose him, Gardner will start with a healthy lead in fundraising.
Joni Ernst (IA), David Perdue (GA) and Thom Tillis (NC) may be on the list, too.
