What I don't understand about how Musgrave got elected. |
|
Colorado CD 4 has perhaps the 2nd and 3rd largest schools and Colorado. CSU and UNC. They are both in that district. From what I heard, Musgrave is for reinstating the draft. How could she have won so handily in 2002 with those college students that would have been vulnerable if this bitch got her way?
On a more funny note, I was at a Kerry youth meeting tonight and there was a guy talking about getting the youth vote. He told a story about a parade where he got a guy to disrupt Musgrave during the parade. The guy dressed all in white and had these rainbow ribbons tied to their hands and feet and she was driving in a car during the parade. The person would run across the street. Trying to make her stop. And she stopped. But that hateful bitch has got to go.
How is Matsunaka doing against her?

There are too many brain-dead RepubliKKKans in this state who would vote for HITLER if he had an "R" after his name on the ballot.
And THAT is how Musgrave won in the first place. She really needs to be put out to pasture.

2. I thought I heard that Matsunaka was running in a dead heat with her. |

So, hopefully, that day will be upon us soon.

got elected because of the year that she ran and the somewhat conservative nature of the district. This year is different. Stan has a great chance to win. Tell everyone you know to contribute whatever they can. We need to win this race.

was a year when Dems were not turning out and Republicans were. There was a Republican tide this year. At worst, this is an even election and there is a good chance its a good Dem year. Kerry is polling 15 points ahead of where Gore ran in this district. This will be a very close race.

5. College students don't vote |
|
And the ones who do often vote by absentee ballot at their permanant address, rather than their college address.
