I wish there were better options than either of the candidates. Someone who was more of a populist candidate. Someone that seemed more like the people they will govern, but alas, that is not to be.

Certainly Broccoli thinks Polis is going to win.
“I’m not going to come out there and say, ‘All the polls are wrong and I think Walker is going to run away with this thing,’ ” Brauchler told The Colorado Sun in an interview.

And, whose name is on cars in Sweden?

Speaking of Broccoli, does he have even a remote clue as to what the Attorney General does?

Brauchler's a self-serving opportunistic douche. Wasted millions prosecuting James Holmes even though he knew damn well he'd never get a death penalty conviction. Harder to burnish your resume and get free publicity by accepting a plea bargain that would've resulted in the exact same outcome.

I voted for him because I voted against Stapleton, hoping that the legislature has a better sense of reality and will keep him in check.

LOL extreme lefties aren't capitalist. Polis is a typical center right politician but you are so partisan you are blind to it.

Okay kiddies! I've added a poll to this thread, it's private, no one will know which of these perps you voted for.

Candidates are listed in alphabetical order and since I now live in AZ I will not vote.

If you are not a Colorado voter, please do not vote in this poll.

Thank you and happy polling.

You got that right-

I think (and thank God) TABOR will keep him in check more than the spineless politicians (they can't even raise the gas tax).

Stapleton seems nervous. He's sort of doing a rapid-fire chatter.
