Democrats See Hopes for West Dim in Colorado

By JEFF ZELENY | Published: May 8, 2010

DENVER — When Barack Obama stood before an admiring audience at Mile High Stadium here and accepted his presidential nomination 21 months ago, Democratic leaders crowed about turning Colorado into a reliable stronghold, another step toward building the party’s strength in the West.

Those dreams of expansion have given way to hopes for survival.

Republicans are now well positioned for a statewide resurgence, threatening several Democratic seats in the midterm elections and raising questions about whether the opening chapter of the Obama administration has eroded gains that Democrats had been making here for the previous six years.

A persistently sluggish economy, the ninth-highest foreclosure rate in the country, the rising federal budget deficit and opposition to the new health care law have all contributed to a volatile environment for Democrats. The number of registered Democrats has dropped slightly since Mr. Obama’s 9-point victory here that made him only the third presidential candidate of his party to carry Colorado since Harry S. Truman.

Whatever happened to laws being for the "COMMON GOOD?"


Whatever happened to the idea of "The Common Good?"


Why do we have so many programs that cater to minorities when they should cater to the "common good?"


Why is it so many sheeple refuse to see Obama for what he is? A venomous lying dirt bag politician.

This is why:

No Child Left Behind...

We promise to protect you in retirement...

We are here to give you work (if you want it).

We promise health care for all!

We promise a car in every garage...

We promise to punish the greedy wealthy...

We promise two chickens in every pot...

We promise HOPE (but under what plan? WHERE WAS THEIR Fing plan???)!!

We promise Change!



What did we get?

the people who caused the problems of our economy got bailed out. WE ate the bill.

Now we have to have Health Insurance or get fined! (READ THE DAMN LAW AHs who are all for it)

We have criminals appointed to key government positions.

We have a totally fed up economy and yet the banks and lending industries are yielding record profits.

Suddenly Obama wants to allow more off shore drilling in an are where if a repeat of what is going on now happens in say off the coast of Virginia the environmental havoc would be more than devastating. As it stands now Obama sure is not saying a lot about the disaster in the gulf of Mexico now! the whole time Congress under Dem rule prevented bush from allowing more drilling. now Obama to the rescue?

And when our government can't hope to afford it Obama drives us TRILLIONS more into a deficit through allowing Congress to do as they see fit. He is so putting his foot down on banks (yeah right, its just a show and shell game) when he needs to be putting it down on congress but will he ever do that?

He hasn't got the grapes!

Obama is sold to special interests like his predecessors.
There is no "Common good" in his cabinet.

That's a very good question.

It was obvious from the very beginning that Obama wasn't interested in doing what is right for ALL Americans.

He made it perfectly clear that anyone who made what he thinks is " too much " money was going to be targeted.

That, in and of itself, contradicts the entire basis for your statement, MsHarmony.

He doesn't give a rat's azz about anyone who makes more than 200k a year.

obviously, because I believe he cares about all levels of people... being that he is NOW amongst the wealthy and was once amongst the struggling,, his life experiences and his words and the way he carries himself all point to the probability that he can 'RELATE; to more than one echelon of american society

The days of the 'Greek columns' speech are "Just words ..." now ... 'The ONE' has managed to do for the 'Democratic Party' [sic] - namely, destroy whatever potential it may have ever had to be 'great' - what he's currently in process of doing to this country. Say 'bye-bye' to any thoughts of holding the West now, 'craps ... or of holding ANY seats that'll leave your 'party' in power.

Not if I have anything to do with it.

I worked to get Obama in office here and I helped then.

I will be working on it again

I am Unaffiliated so I don't show up as a Democrat or Republican.

As long as the Republicans are supporting the tea baggers and all the other ignorant stuff going on, like preventing the greater good or common good by just blocking everything, they will not get my vote again.

Polly wanna cracker???

PROVE it! SHOW me what isn't true?

He flat out STATED that anyone making more than 250k a year should be giving MORE of that money to those poor downtrodden folks who just ( insert hand wringing and bleeding heart here ) don't get a " chance " to be as good as everyone else.

Remember that " Hope and Change " thing??

How he was gonna " redistribute " the wealth in this country?

How things were going to be more " equal "???

PROVE your position.

But of course....you can't.

Wow. That statement, I am sure, has the Republicans just SHAKING in fear.

from washington post'

The Pinocchio Test
With very few exceptions, all American politicians, including both presidential candidates, are in favor of a progressive income tax system and welfare policies (such as Medicare and Social Security) that "redistribute wealth." Barack Obama is more enthusiastic about "spreading the wealth around" than his Republican rival. But that does not make him a "Socialist." The McCain camp is wrong to suggest that the Illinois senator advocated an "wealth redistribution" role for the Supreme Court in his 2001 interview.
