She might stop acting like an idiot (maybe) but she lacks the capability to actually do her job, regardless of what her handlers tell her to do. Water issues, anyone?

He should spend the next 4 years dogging her. Every time she does something stupid and unproductive for the district, he should make it front and center. That district being as competitive as it was is one of the most surprising outcomes of the midterm elections.

It should be a daily reminder to the Republican party that MAGA Trumpism is not a viable strategy in Colorado.

Yes. I hope her handlers pound some sense into her. She really isn't fit for office in any way.

She's not acting. She IS an idiot.

I don't think she'll ever get idiotic enough to agree with your sniffer in chief.

I get it. Frisch was a class act. He got beat in the election. We voted Boebert in. Frisch said, don't send money to mine or any other recount campaign. It's a waste of money. It won't change the results. Spend your money on petro, food, your families.

Now, you can call your opponents idiots and the like, but once you get away from your echo chamber, you'll see your friends, enemies, and even family members and coworkers don't agree with you on certain things.

That is all.

That's the way I feel about most of the Front Range politicians.

I think I see where you're going with this.

Back when I lived in Denver, they sure shut down a place called Pharmore that tried to sell the booze.

All I see is Wal-Mart tearing into everybody's market when they can sell Cuervo Gold and Jack.

Now you're confusing legislation with trying to mandate behavior. Something like 10% of the population is "potential" alcoholic and about another "potential 10% hard drinker. What about the 80% who are not, the alkys and the hard drinkers who decide to not only abstain from booze, but also decide to not drink and drive?

You cannot legislate behavior nor sanity. Well you can try. This is why I vote red. I'm an adult and I expect adult behavior. When there's not, I steer clear.

I just had Triscuits in my backpack. To this day I can't stand turkey lunch meat....
Sound's like obama's wife to me. As far as funds to feed children in school, if you can't feed them, don't breed them.

The whole south and east side especially around the airport is a dangerous ghetto, and I'm from Pueblo.

Yeah, I'm not sure Lambourn is even a person, I think he's a GOP invented robot. But he hands out stimulus to the defense sector so he's

I do have to say the roads have gotten better than they were 5 years ago, understanding that CO weather is brutal to asphalt. It's pretty apparent that in COS, they fund the development in the direction they want, which isn't futher out east. Just hope they stay in decent shape...

I detest Lamborn, and I'm a retired DoD employee, a relative hawk on defense matters, and a registered Republican since 1968 when I first voted for Nixon. Lamborn's a coward who won't debate anyone and his only accomplishment is to get a hiking trail opened; otherwise he never did squat for the people in CO-5. I saw him one night in Pine Creek Wine where he appeared tipsy but was buying a 1.75 of liquor. What bugged me about some of the prior elections I participated in when I lived in CO-5 was that we had some very fine retired Army/USAF generals running for the GOP nomination in that district but the people gave Lamborn the nod. We could've had truly capable people representing us in CO-5 but for whatever reason voters picked the worst of the lot to represent them. Oh well.
