Andrew Romanoff is the former Colorado House Majority Leader, who has bucked the establishment and even the President to run a primary against Michael Bennet, who voted against the Cram-down legislation, and until very recently was not generally supportive of the public option.

Dem's failed in their last attempt to unseat Lungren, but the 3rd voted strongly for Obama and there's a much better chance for 2010.

Because if not they don't mean shit.
