Seriously- it’s not like anyone has to pass a test or ace the interview. You file, you run, the end.
The vetting comes in a primary.
So, obviously, her problem is that she didn’t have a tough primary to bloody her up. That would have helped her campaign. Helped her campaign end sooner, but help is help.
As for “who” – who would want the job?
The pay is poor. You get to waste two years of your term limit being in the minority. If you got school age kids, you gotta figure out if Littleton is going to close your school and if so whether you want to move. If you’re older, you’re kind of over it.
No – I just don’t see the joy. Unless, you got a day job where you got all kinds of time, or your in at the capital can pay off. Real estate developer or mortgage lender or something.
they couldn’t get anybody else to take it on after Joe’s decisive defeats of the old GOP hegemony here in HD38 two election cycles in a row. But GOPers are pouring everything they can into it now. Never have I seen so much spent on a little old HD race, including keeping TV ads in rotation for so long. The amount of outside money that takes is mind boggling. But Joe’s machine is lean, mean, focused like a laser and battle scarred. And with redistricting coming up, his campaign hasn’t exactly been starved for funds either. Game on!
I, and many others, were really hoping that Dave Kerber would try again
Dave is my uncle and family – a really wonderful man and leader – for better or worse, Dave is really dedicated to serving as the Arapahoe County Chair (and quite frankly, the State GOP should consider him for State Chairman – he would be excellent)
Overall though – credit to Joe Rice because no one wanted to go up against him – Republicans respect that man
I know Kathleen Conti and she’s a very well-meaning and nice person – I wish she had picked different campaign points – nonetheless, I truly don’t believe her campaign represents her true intentions, which is mainly to cut spending and cut taxes
Agree that Dave is doing a great job. He’s still running his biz, so I don’t think he’ll go for state chair, which is a full time job. Being the GOP chair of any county has been a thankless task this year because of Dan Maes and Scott McInnis.
As for Conti, she makes good presentations these days. I never got time to put up a video of her presentation, but she sounds pretty good to me. She owns a food distribution/brokering biz, as I understand it. She didn’t have the money to hire someone who could get her organized and help her run a great campaign. Outsiders have sent out several great post cards and funded several robo calls for her. I think I’ve gotten one Rice mailing and one or two robo calls for him.
While I respect Rice’s smarts and service in the military, I don’t like his hard left, pro-tax policies and his arrogance toward voters who question his votes.
Conti has a good chance of winning this seat today, especially if the GOP wave is as big as some think it is.
Disagreeing with a small minority of voters is “arrogance toward voters.” Rich. Well, I guess I should have expected it since this is what Buck’s ad says not so directly.
He’s had some problems in the county with rogue GOPers who wanted the party to endorse Tancredo, and he refused to do it, citing the bylaws. On top of that, he also had to deal with a rogue precinct person who put Tancredo flyers in with the county GOP voter guide – right next to the Maes flyers. There have been some calls for Kerber to resign, which IMO would be a shame.
That’s a good thing
And one rogue pc does Tancredo flyers?
In a county as huge as Arapahoe, one bad case isn’t a demonstration of bad leadership
There went any credibility you might have claimed. And we’ve gotten tons of Rice stuff addressed to my U husband. Rice targets and you apparently weren’t considered worth it. Gee (Rice a hard lefty, wow), wonder why they didn’t see you as a likely prospect. I guess all the chambers of commerce and business groups that support Rice, including state chamber and small business groups, must be infiltrated by commies.
