Rep. Cory Gardner jumps into CO. Race!

Rep. Cory Gardner jumps into CO. Senate Race!

In a backroom deal yesterday, ideological twins Ken Buck and U.S. Rep. Cory Gardner decided to swap races. Ken will run for Congress in Cory’s district. And Rep. Gardner will jump in hoping to challenge Mark Udall for the U.S. Senate.

This is BIG news and gives the Tea Party challengers a new frontrunner in this race to the extreme right. Nationally, the pundits and talking heads say the race is now one of the country’s most competitive.

Our response today is crucial. Rep. Gardner already has nearly $1 million in his campaign war chest. That’s almost twice as much as all the other Tea Party candidates combined.

Chip in here:

unlike the certified nutbag Buck. Unfortunately for those of us in the 4th - Buck will now be our rep. Gardner does remind me of Chauncy Gardner though - remember him? Peter Sellers? Talked a good game, but really never did anything but tend his garden? That's Cory - although he was spotted bagging groceries at Lucky's a couple of weeks ago. And - oh yeah- had his picture taken a lot w/ Bennett, Udall and Hick after the floods. What a do-nothing.
