But how will they pay for it?

Have you been curious, like me, in exactly how this crytocurrency funding model is going to work for the new Colorado Sun? Even with this primer, I'm still confused. Is it a problem that the Democrat candidate for Attorney General has never practiced Colorado law? Many would say, "yes." Oh, good. Broomfield is taking on the important

“Low on most lists”

The backlash to the new Bank of the West policy is real. Ouch. Although Hickenlooper has been talked about as a Presidential nominee, Floyd Ciruli says he's "low on most lists."  Now the fractivists are using zombies to get attention. Okay.

That smarts

Woof. That smarts. Doug Friednash isn't parsing his words.  Is this election going to be, at least in part, a referendum on socialized medicine? Democrats for Education Reform have released a study showing a majority of people are "education progressives" . . . I wonder how the CEA feels about that?

Switching Banks

Have an account with Bank of the West? Maybe it's time to move banks? That's how the free market works, you don't want the business of people who make it so you can drive your car and turn your lights on? Fine. We will put our money elsewhere. Did unaffiliated voters change the election outcomes or not?

Rally

Energy Citizens has an anti-97 "decline to sign" petition circulating. If you stand with them, you can sign it here.  Speaking of energy, the energy rally at the Capitol yesterday was massive and did a good job of highlighting the sector. The Greeley Tribune offered Ken Buck some serious praise for his latest bill.

Shorting Obamacare

Jared Polis hasn't just made money while in Congress, he's made A LOT of money. In fact, much of the money he made was by investing in a medical tourism company - which is a pretty strong indicator he thought his Obamacare vote was going to make the U.S.' medical system worse, not better. There's no

Slap

Polis' plans to skip the Club 20 debates. That's bad news. Club 20 is a Colorado institution, and being the first candidate in 30 years to skip sends a message to the people of the Western Slope - and that message is "you don't matter." Russian meddling in the elections? Not here in Colorado.  This

Jared Polis, running for Governor of Denver/Boulder

DENVER - Jared Polis has announced he will not be attending the Club 20 debate but has offered to send a surrogate in his place. Club 20, Colorado’s “Voice of the Western Slope” has been holding these debates for 30 years and not once has a candidate, of either party, declined. The Club 20 debates

Scathing

The Gazette wrote a scathing editorial against Jared Polis this weekend for voting against military pay increases. That's a good way to quickly make everyone in Colorado Springs dislike you. Cynthia Coffman snagged the top spot at the Western Attorneys General.  Why is everyone talking about Jordan Cove?
