(Denver, CO) – Now that the 2020 election cycle has begun in earnest, all eyes are on the state of Iowa as prospective Democrat challengers to Donald Trump emerge. Governor John Hickenlooper threw his hat in ring early and has been courting the support of Iowans for months. Until just this morning, no one saw Senator Michael Bennet as a potential candidate except apparently Michael Bennet and a few of his friends with connections at the Associated Press.

“I’ll give you three seconds to come up with Michael Bennet’s top accomplishment . . . time’s up, I couldn’t think of one either,” said Kelly Maher, executive director of Compass Colorado. “Try doing something as Senator before running for President.”
