ANY Dem that bails out of the U.S. House or U.S. Senate, especially considering, that it is at this point in time, is a Chicken Shit......and that includes our very own Senator from Colorado.........

As long as things go with the flow, status quo, etc they are all in for their powerful/status position. At the most crucial time in our countries history, when they chose to run rather than stay and fight......they lose all respect from me..........Our Senator from Colorado is running for Colorado Governor in the next election, and sure won't be getting my vote.....There HAVE to be better Dems running for Governor.

In past years, I have heard nothing much out of our two U.S. Senators, or our U.S. House member from Denver.....

Lincoln, years ago, said: " A Statesman is interested in the next generations........ a politician only in the next election..."

I personally also feel our past two term governor in Colorado was, in reality, a DINO.........

My opinions....
