Barbour Signals RGA Will Surrender Colorado

[WI_DEM]

RGA chair Haley Barbour is signaling the national body dedicated to electing GOP governors is giving up on the chance at an open seat in a swing state after a competitive GOP primary produced a badly damaged nominee.

Speaking to reporters at a breakfast sponsored by the Christian Science Monitor Wednesday morning, Barbour acknowledged the difficulties businessman Dan Maes (R) faces in winning election, and the RGA's unwillingness to throw good money after bad.

"We have spent money in Colorado. Past tense," Barbour said.
