The Denver Post newspaper, which endorsed Bill Ritter for Governor, has decided to endorse Rep. Tom Tancredo, a racist, promise breaker, nuclear madman, and supporter of anti-American groups, instead of endorsing the best choice for CO-6 and America: Bill Winter. Why did they endorse Mad Tom? You got me.
Even their endorsement leaves that question open:
We endorse his candidacy with trepidation.
Essentially, their endorsement sounds like "he tries hard on only a single issue but has failed all this time, so let's give him another chance." They even say they like Bill Winter:
Tancredo's opponent, Democrat Bill Winter, is no stranger to public service and is a respectable alternative for voters who believe Tancredo is wrong on his issue and unlikely to help achieve a solution. Winter is a veteran of the Navy and Marines and offers a valuable voice on military matters. A former educator, he's ready to reform the unworkable No Child Left Behind law.
Winter also takes a sensible middle ground on immigration.
Time for action. Please give Bill your support. For those of you in CO-6, Talk to every person in your neighborhood and let them know the truth. For those of you elsewhere, consider putting more pressure on the Colorado and National media to raise the visibility of Bill. Also, help put Bill on TV; You can start here to put the Winter "Had Enough" video on the air. It's time to bring this "Tom Tancredo" - a man just short of being a domestic terrorist - down once and for all.
