In Colorado, wingnut candidate for Governor Marc Holtzman is engaged in a war with stealth wingnut candidate Bob Beauprez. They have at times accused each other of stealing Rolodexes, misusing email lists, and betraying the GOP. Beauprez threatened to drop out of three-way debates (with Democratic candidate and frontrunner Bill Ritter) because of Holtzman's unfair attacks.

And now Marc Holtzman has threatened to drop out of the Republican Assembly process because he is concerned about "fraud and manipulation" in the GOP delegate voting process.

Didn't know irony could get that thick, did ya?

Well if that wasn't enough to make you laugh, let me share with you this brilliant press release that Democratic candidate for Secretary of State Ken Gordon just sent out: Read More

Or: A Simple Desultory Phillipic, 2005.

Gentlefolk, let it herewith be known that in this virtual place I am knowingly and with forethought breaking all conventions of diary etiquette by posting what can only be called the most navel-gazing and self-referential waste of words you are likely to read here today.

It's my birthday. And all that entails. Read More

In light of two recent Daily Kos stories (1, 2) placing Kossacks firmly in the vanguard of Open Source technology, I'm curious if others have the same problems I do accessing the DNC website with the Mozilla project's Firefox browser. Read More

To nearly everyone's surprise, Colorado Democrats yesterday ousted party leader Chris Gates in favor of Pat Waak. This is a solid victory for grassroots politics about which all Democrats should be ecstatic. Read More

I just received this from the Colorado Democratic Party. Chris Gates is no prize, either, but like Salazar, he'll be hard to challenge.

The following letter is from U.S. Senator Ken Salazar:

February 1, 2005

Dear Friend,

Results matter. For the first time in over a decade, we have re-established a foothold in the Rocky Mountain West to build upon not only in Colorado but to serve as a model for the rest of the West, and indeed the country.

I would like to thank our Wellington Webb, the former mayor of Denver, Vice Chair of the DNC, and a great voice in Colorado and in national Democratic politics.

It is truly unfortunate that Webb did not get more attention in the DNC race than he did. I am strongly for Dean, but I would have liked to see a race with Webb near the finish. Wellington Webb is one of the few folks who really "get it," and would have been a charismatic and bold face for our Party. Read More

Since many here are in support of Howard Dean's candidacy for DNC chair, I thought I would briefly report his advice in last night's conference call as to how we can help him gain support. If you back another candidate, I would imagine this advice is still relevant. Read More

Eminem's excellent hip-hop anthem Mosh is now available at the iTunes music store for $0.99. It comes in "explicit" and "clean" versions if you for some reason don't like to hear the words "Fuck Bush." (Me, I never get tired of that in any context.)

Also, the video that launched a revolution is available there in the videos section. Two sizes: small and really huge. Niiice.

Got your black hoodie yet? Go visit MoshTheVote if you don't know what I'm babbling about.

I have friends who are eager to head out of state to volunteer with GOTV efforts where it would be most useful next week.

My understanding was that if Kerry wins Ohio, it becomes extremely difficult for Bush to prevail no matter how other swing states go. But they are interested in traveling Pennsylvania, obviously another crucial battleground.

O learned Kossacks, where would you allocate these resources in order to help John Kerry most strategically?

My apologies for re-re-posting this, but if you were not aware of a particular slur that CNN Crossfire host Tucker Carlson has been spreading for years now, you will be hopping mad after you read this and this.

Briefly, a five-year old girl, Valerie Lakey, was dragged to the bottom of a swimming pool and literally disemboweled while her father flailed helplessly. She lives, but will require feeding machinery for the rest of her life. The problem arose from a faulty drain made by the Sta-Rite corporation of Wisconsin. Several other children were harmed by the same mechanism, which could have been made safe by a cheap manufacturing change. Read More

is why was today's Nader vs. Dean debate relegated to a hasty diary entry?

With all the glee Kos and others take in bringing Nader down, I'd think this event would merit mention in the main column. Dean did an admirable job of dissecting Ralph's reasons for running, and it was an open and content-rich hour of debate. Dean is the reason a lot of people are here, but is no longer mentioned by those who run this blog.
