With all of the debt ceiling vote brouhaha, we didn’t get a chance to get to the Republican Presidential candidate straw poll in Colorado last weekend. The Western Conservative Summit, a three-day event held last weekend in Colorado, also included a straw-poll that saw 508 ballots cast (full press release after the jump). The results? […]
Back in June, we had some fun with the…unusual defense of freshman Rep. Cory Gardner’s vote in favor of the GOP 2012 budget proposal (known as the “Ryan Plan”) offered by Gardner’s spokesperson Rachel Boxer. Despite the undisputed agreement that the 2012 GOP budget would result in large reductions in coverage for Medicare beneficiaries starting […]
Reports Politico, poor Sen. Harry Reid just can’t get a break: Minority Leader Mitch McConnell joined fellow Republicans critical of Majority Leader Harry Reid’s plan to raise the debt ceiling, calling it “another attempt to pull the wool over the eyes of the American people.” The Senate’s top Republican didn’t outline any specific objections to […]
A fascinating guest opinion piece from GOP Rep. Mike Coffman in stout defense of the 2012 GOP budget proposal authored by Budget Committee chairman Paul Ryan–as published in the Lone Tree Voice this weekend, excerpts presented without additional comment. Thoughts? The Medicare Board of Trustees conservatively places 2024 as the date when the Medicare trust […]
The Los Angeles Times updates on debt-ceiling negotiations this weekend: Picking up the pieces after the latest round of debt negotiations imploded, congressional leaders met Saturday with President Obama and began work on a Republican-backed plan to cut spending by roughly $3 trillion over 10 years in exchange for their vote to raise the debt […]
( – promoted by Colorado Pols) TUESDAY POLS UPDATE: Release after the jump. “Our current representative is a politician who has spent much of his career in Washington D.C. as an attorney and congressman. Somewhere along the line, he lost his way. Supporting a plan that would end Medicare as we know it was part […]
An interesting case-in-point–on increasingly partisan commercial media, or an ad making false claims illegal under Colorado election law? You decide as the AP reports via Real Clear Politics on the “fate” of last week’s House Majority PAC radio spots against freshman Rep. Scott Tipton: Tipton’s lawyer, John Zakhem of Denver, said the ad is flawed […]
UPDATE: Arguing it out with relatives over the 4th of July weekend? Check out this Bell Policy Center report on the Ryan budget plan and its impact on Colorado–forearmed is a debate won. —– You can’t turn on a TV right now in Colorado without seeing the new ad from Karl Rove’s well-funded “Super PAC,” […]
Talking Points Memo says Democrats can play in a post-Citizens United world, too: On the heels of the $20 million economic-themed ad blitz by Karl Rove’s political money machine this week, Democrats are taking to the air with their own attack ad campaign targeting Republicans over the budget. The six-figure campaign by House Majority PAC, […]
On KCFR’s Colorado Matters last week, mayoral candidate Chris Romer said he wants to “make sure we put sports back into middle schools.” This surprised me, because I had just watched my son, who plays on his DPS middle-school baseball team, lose badly in the playoffs to the kids from DPS’ Hamilton Middle School. (The […]
