Know-Nothing Caldara
Ha ha!
Colorado voters, unlike Caldara, showed sense
The News hedged its bets in determining winners and losers after the election on Referendums C and D. The most important winners overlooked by the News are the citizens and students here in beautiful Colorado. Let's never forget them again. But the effort to paint Jon Caldara as both a winner and a loser was a little too transparent.
In a black-and-white world the likes of Caldara prefer to live in, you can't be both a winner and a loser. He was a big loser - and I'm sure he feels it. Despite the backing of major money and resources, 50,000 watts of radio to speak on night after night, and being the point man for the Grover Norquist faction of the Kno-Nothing party - he lost.
"Formidable"? Yes, in how he could lie blatantly, repeatedly and without conscience. That's about it; and there's nothing formidable about it. I was not impressed by Caldara's arguments and was disappointed in his efforts to cloud the issues. The citizens of Colorado showed there is a well of common sense in all communities across America. We saw it on Election Day and I thank my fellow citizens for using it.

What Caldara does not understand is that the taxes that Referendum C allows the state to keep will enhance the quality of life in Colorado. Although, I agree we should keep taxes as low as possible we must realize that running the state takes money. All of the people that live in Colorado rely on one another and the state and local governments to help provide. Even Caldara can't get by without support of the rest of the citizens and the Colorado government(police, fire, education, etc.). For better or worse our state needs money to operate and Coloradans need one another. As the saying goes "No man is an island".
You are 100% correct.
There are many places where it's "each man for himself" and the taxes are negligible........I don't know anyone who would want to live there.
Least of all Doug Bruce, Cladara, or Grover Norquist. They're flaming hypocrites.
