The photo of Kellyanne Conway should read, "I'll get you and your little dog, too!"
Alva, I’m pretty sure you meant to say Sean Spicer, the well known celebrity dancing clown.😉
Campana seems to be the candidate to beat. Colorado Pols coming after him with the usual guilt by association proves you’re worried about him.
My dog is polling better than Gino.
The only person here worried about guilt by association is Gino and the certain kiss of death that is your hearty endorsement.
Jeez, Fluffy, I dunno’ . . .
. . . I thought you had us down as still being afraid of Governor Coffman?
(. . . and all the rest of Team Kleenex?)
Yawn. You ascribe so much to us. Gino Campana worry? Nah. In fact, not much worry at all about the slate of miscreants on the nazi side of the aisle
(Replying to Moderatus) It’s a tricky question as to who is doing best. Having watched the debates and attended one (still need to watch recorded Weld debate), Gino has the best organization. But you can’t trust the results of the straw polls as you can skew who wins by simply having your campaign buy up tons of seats. And I’ve seen some stuff suggesting that sort of shenanigans is going on.
That said, I agree that Gino is doing well. He gives very strong opening statements in all debates and as mentioned above has the best campaign organization presence. But once you get past opening statements Gino tends to falter; he blends right back into the crowd.
This is where Eli (disclosure: he is as mentioned before an old friend of mine so I am quite biased) has his angle. Basically Gino is only as good as his advisors can prep him (better version of O’Dea). But Eli is able to repeatedly nail questions for the GOP base on tough issues. He presents a plan to flip the script in the general on the environment, voting, and trans issues. And the base laps up his answers from what I have seen. At least when he stays on point…like all new candidates he has room for improvement in his answers. Plus Eli has better endorsements.
So I really see it as a Gino vs Eli race. Can Gino’s superior organization and openings keep preventing Eli from catching fire? Or can Eli finally make not two or three baskets in a row but a bunch to go on a run? I see either as possible making this a fun race to watch.
To add to the interest even further is the O’Dea factor. A guy with an absolutely massive war chest – but who otherwise has no real ability as a candidate – running a vanity campaign that his advisors can get quite rich whispering sweet nothings into his ear. He will spend boat loads to petition on making it possibly a three way fight for non-insanity between him, Eli, and Gino (I don’t think other candidates are going anywhere unless Flora’s “Awakening not Awokening” line finally works on the 200th time she says it). And if that happens it isn’t Eli or Gino that will be the nominee. Or O’Dea. It will be Ron Hanks in a scenario like the 2016 GOP presidential primary (where Rubio and Cruz knocked each other out and Trump snuck in).
Thanks for that informed analysis, Elliot. Interesting. It's why people come here.
I agree with Duke (surprise !!).
I need to check out Eli's campaign website.
I took a look at Eli’s site, and although I would certainly never consider myself the “intended audience,” I also honestly have to admit . . .
. . . you probably are.
I’m not sure anyone needs to knock anyone out. The extremists of the Party will go for Hanks in the Primary, unless Hanks ends up shooting himself in the foot – figuratively or literally.
