Republican dilemmas ….
Boebert or Foster // gun groups or alumni meetings // QAnon or Chamber of Commerce // Gessler or Penry //
I'm sure I'm missing a few.
Petulant craziness or smiling evilness . . .
I'd be surprised if Tim Foster runs for Congress. He's smarter than that. It is a shitty job for westerners because of the travel involved. Besides, Foster isn't near crazy enough for today's Mesa County GOP.
Lots of wishful thinking going on regarding Foster's next move. I don't see Tim Foster going after CD 3 – dream on folks!
Tis a pity most seem to feel he Tim won't run. He's a Republican that I could actually support.
But you are probably right, he's not near crazy enough for today's GOP. But if he got through the primary, I doubt he could be beat in the general.
Any rational Republican who could beat Boebert in a primary would be a shoe-in for the general in the 3rd. Unless redistricting adds a lot more Democrats, the district will remain largely Republican.
Reverse side of the same coin and, as far as I'm concerned, their money ain't good here in Colorado.
I used to work for him. He's ok, though more than little homophobic and bigoted – which passes for downright liberal I today's GOP.
He also never washes his hands after a trip to the boys room.
He'd prolly be a shoo-in, given how he's run CMU as a no show sinecure for gop hasbeens on the bestern slope. He's gotta have many favors to call in.
My dealings with him were in the legislature in the early 90s. He was actually one of the LESS homophobic Republicans in office back then.
It is difficult to argue with Tims’ success, if you define success by fundraising, construction, and public relations. I understand President Foster runs a tight ship. After several meetings with staff and faculty, I know some other stuff.
I know that CMU (locally known as Colorado Methane University for the unusual number of adjunct professors recruited from the O&G industry) is not a bastion of shared governance. Faculty who question Tims’ rule know of whence I speak.
He is much more dangerous than Calamity Jane Boebert, but I think he is after the governor slot, not a seat in a legislative body.. He doesn’t like to negotiate. He prefers to dictate..
I agree that if (and that's a big IF) Foster returns to elective politics, it would be for governor. But again, I don't believe he's near crazy enough for today's GOP.
