Bob Beauprez Will NOT Run for the Senate From Colorado

[CO Liberal]

Just announced on local radio (KVOR, Colorado Springs).

As of right now, there is no Republican cnadidate to replace Ben Nightmare Campbell.

I'll try to find a link.

1. That's kinda too bad, actually.

Salazar would have eaten that dude, and then he wouldn't have been able to run for his district. However, if no candidate emerges, I won't complain.

2. Hmmm

Doesn't it strike you as kind of odd the Republicans seem a little thin for candidates on this thing?

Maybe Marilyn Musgrave - though Salazar would squash her, too.

7. Musgrave isn't running either.

3. Probably Tancredo...

He's so self-righteous and full of himself he'll think he's doing us a favor. But actually, he will be - because he's a religious nut and his ideology doesn't play well outside of Douglas and JeffCo.

6. Don't forget El Paso county.

Home of Focus on the Family, Colorado for Family Values and 15 other such organizations.

4. That jerk

I hate Beauprez. Dave Thomas is running against him last I heard, and I can't wait to vote against him again.

5. Thanks For Providing The Correct Spelling Of "Beauprez"

I corrected my original post.

:hi:

13. It doesn't matter how we spell it, he's still a moron

:)

8. I think McInnis will run.

Tancredo is hated by most republicans. While Salazar would beat McInnis, he would totally bitch-smack Tancredo.

12. I Kinda HOPE McPinhead Runs

Then us Democrats can explore the rumors that have been circulating for years about him being involved in several domestic violence incidents with his first wife back when he was a cop in Grand Junction. And why the personnel and court records have somehow mysteriously vanished.

In fact, if he does announce his candidacy, I just may call "60 Minutes", "Dateline", and 20/20" to get the ball rolling....

10. McInnis and Tancredo will probably both run

Along with For. Rep. Bob Schaeffer.

11. Beauprez just refused to cosponsor our bill . . .

. . . which would have provided more money for school food service. Even CAMPBELL signed on. That tells you something.
