How the DNC Sandbagged the Colorado Senate Primary

The first step in getting honest elections is getting an honest primary. What You Can Do

Everything Michele writes about is true. Great article. The critical issue is Not about paying off Romanoff's Debt (though I agree the DNC should) but is about getting an honest primary and Punishing Those Who Stole Our Primary.

Once Obama endorsed Bennet..THIS RACE WAS NO LONGER about EITHER Bennet OR Romanoff, BUT ABOUT A PRESIDENT WHO IS THE Leader of our Democratic Party and his
STEALING OUR SENATE NOMINATION for His Candidate, Bennet.

If you care about honest elections you know that First We Must Have an HONEST PRIMARY.

Since Obama, the DNC, the DSCC, Organizing For America (Obama's personal army) and our State Democratic Party Officers conspired to create this travesty, they will continue to do this in the future, and will do nothing to help US stop it. SO, Only YOU & I CAN STOP IT.

The only way to stop this from happening again is to Resist It Now!

On your Ballot, WRITE-IN "Romanoff"

or just leave the Space "BLANK"

and send a powerful message to Obama and arrogant elite Democrats.

The first step in getting honest elections is getting an honest primary. I can handle Buck for one term if the upside is getting an honest primary next time.

The critical issue is

about getting an honest primary and Punishing Those Who Stole Our Primary.

So the theft does not happen again. If a President can steal a primary nomination, there is no point in voting in the General Election.

I don't want Buck, but I can live with Buck as a Senator
IF in the process we can clean up the Primary Election Corruption in the Colorado Democratic Party.

Colorado's Dems will have six years to find a true progressive to rally around and take the seat back.

The GOP probably will not have a majority and even if they do, we can Filibuster everything they throw at us.

AND Obama can veto the GOP's Bills.

Do You Honestly Believe What You Wrote?

1. If a President can steal a primary nomination, there is no point in voting in the General Election. Fine, give the state government back to the Republicans, the Independence Institute and Doug Bruce. No voting means no voting down ballot and loss of control of the Governorship, the SOS, the Attorney General, the Treasury and the legislature in a decennial year followed by redistricting. It also could insure passage of Amendments 60, 61, 62, 63 and initiative 101. You want a fight with President Obama, have one, don't destroy what Andrew Romanoff along with many others accomplished and grew beginning 6 years ago.
   
2. I can live with Buck as a Senator
   IF in the process we can clean up the Primary Election Corruption in the Colorado Democratic Party.  So, you want to destroy Social Security, education grants, gut environmental protection, let the financial industry run free and fraudulent and beef up militarism?  Why not concentrate your anger at the state party leadership and put in new DNC and ColoradoDem officers?  Reorg occurs next February and something like that can be accomplished then.
   
3. Colorado's Dems will have six years to find a true progressive to rally around and take the seat back. You had better hope that this is the case. The last crop of Republican US Senators were in office for a lot longer than 6 years.
   
4. The GOP probably will not have a majority and even if they do, we can Filibuster everything they throw at us. If you believe that, you will likely be very disappointed.  It won't happen, because most of those Democratic Senators who would do such a thing have taken an oath to uphold the US Constitution and  don't want to see the country fail, as opposed to what the Republicans have done the past 18 months.
   

If we do not begin to see just how damaging this election can be, we are going to have a very bad and very long time without any power.  It is harmful to everyone, except those who pay the fascist right's bills. It is far past time to stop being angry at one man's loss and come together for the good of all Coloradans.
