If Morse is recalled, Republicans, gunnies and the NRA will have their revenge, but Democrats win.
Ah, politics. Best left to the adults. 
(Colorado) Recall could lead to legislative consequences
In an expensive, unnecessary and politically damaging recall election that culminates on Sept. 10, Colorado Senate President John Morse, D-Colorado Springs, will either be confirmed in office for one more year or recalled.
If the recall fails, we’re back to status quo ante. Democrats will still control the both houses of the Legislature. John Hickenlooper will still be Colorado’s governor.
If the recall succeeds, only one thing will change. Bernie Herpin will take Morse’s seat representing Senate District 11 during the 2014 legislative session.
I would not want to be a Colorado Springs Republican during the 2014 session, much less a lobbyist representing local interests.
So who loses, and who wins? The answer may surprise you....
