Hickenlooper isn't everything I'd like in a Dem Governor, but we really are a very very Purple state with lots of very conservative areas. I think someone more liberal would have a hard time getting elected here. He's moderate enough that he is palatable to the moderate Republicans and many Independents. I'd rather have him than ANYONE from the Repub side.
