[You kip if you want to...]

Win or lose, should Maes poll below 10%, Obama's odds in Colorado surely improve quite a bit for 2012...

Seems like pbrowers "incumbent approval+5" rule isn´t too bad ...

Bennet with 40% approval and 47% support against Buck.

Of course only matters if Obama's opponent is a joke candidate like Sarah Palin.

No, I don't mean it in a hackish way.

I mean, because of CO law would make the GOP a "Minor party" for 2012 if Maes falls below 10%.

Although, yes, the whole "incumbent +5" thing is stupid since approval rating isn't an electoral match-up...

Here in the UK, Maes would be on the verge of losing his deposit.

Here in the UK, Tandredo would be a member of the BNP. As would Sarah Palin.
