A Rocky Republican Finish

Let’s take a step back on the “boob” remarks about Wayne Allard, please. Try checking out the NRA rally that’s going to be held here in Denver this Thursday, October 24th, and see whether or not Allard has support. Better get there early, it’s going to be overwhelmed with very fired-up voters.
In Colorado Springs a Republican is campaigning with giant billboard signs declaring himself to be a “Reagan Conservative.” Colorado Springs is very conservative and can overwhelm, in a statewide race, the Denver inner-city vote.
Mr. Allard is not a boob, nor are his mis-steps in naming the price of a stamp or the head of North Korea a gaffe — Tom Strickland, his opponent, missed the same questions. Why didn’t you report that?
I don’t know who you have reporting on Colorado. Whoever they are, fire them. They’re wrong about Colorado, and they’re wrong about Senator Allard.
