And the people that voted for him are even bigger idiots! I don't see how he can ever show his face in Colorado again. There are so many people that dispise this narcissistic man. Kansas doesn't even deserve to have him back. Go away Dan. We don't like you!


"Narcissistic personality disorder (NPD) is a personality disorder defined by the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, the diagnostic classification system used in the United States, as "a pervasive pattern of grandiosity, need for admiration, and a lack of empathy."[1]

The narcissist is described as being excessively preoccupied with issues of personal adequacy, power, and prestige.[2] Narcissistic personality disorder is closely linked to self-centeredness."

Yep - I'd say this defines him perfectly.

Maes might want to look to move to Montezuma county.

MONTEZUMA COUNTY -- 11 of 11 precincts reporting (100%)
Maes [GOP] 3,613 38%
Hickenlooper [Dem] 3,542 37% (X)
Tancredo [AmC] 2,139 22%
Clark [Una] 92 1%
Brown [Lib] 121 1%
Fiorino [Una] 30 0%

Bad move, the party needs an overhaul, but with Maes breaking the 10% barrier it's less likely to happen.

You guys DO realize that if you add the votes for Maes AND Tancredo TOGETHER, they still don't add up to more than Hickenlooper. You can blame Maes for a lot, but in the end did he really "spoil it" for Tancredo?

Just looking at the raw numbers, LJ you are correct, but I think it's more than that. I don’t think Tancredo, was able in the short time frame of his campaign to attract the independent voters, He was known for so long only as an opponent of illegal immigration. There wasn’t time to get people to know Tancredo on the rest of the issues.
I do think we will find some cross voting by repubs, those who couldn’t support Maes but who also couldn’t support a candidate who left the party. Included in this I think we’ll find those who also believe in only a two party system, a system that has no room for any “minor” party. I haven’t looked at the numbers yet but I bet these same people also under voted in the governor’s race.

We as conservatives need to face facts, Colorado is no longer a solid red state.

edit to add: In a sense He spoil it for Tancredo, Tancredo had to spend time and money going after Maes when those resources could have been better spent going after Hickenlooper and getting the word out about Tancredo beyond illegal immigration.

How much money, and how many ads did he spend going after Maes?...I don't remember all that much... But it's a good point...

I don't know the numbers, but I'm sure the plan was to first beat down Maes. Tancredo had to poll above Maes early on in order to be considered a viable candidate.
