It's not the end of the world if Buck leads in the polls.

I'm calling fool's gold here. If this were 2010's climate and a weak incumbent like Bennet was running, I'd be incredibly worried, but Udall is literally a perfect fit (with his civil libertarian leanings) for the Democratic base and independents in this state. I wouldn't be surprised if polls show Gardner leading by a few points for a bit, but like Michigan, Dems will come home in the end if Udall runs a solid campaign.

Also, I'm excited for Democrats to trash the career of someone who I thought had in future in the GOP leadership.

ABC says he will jump in later this week.

Buck is the real winner here!

Speaking of Musgrave, has she conceded yet?

I'm actually surprised she hasn't emerged as a statewide candidate yet. The GOP loves their far-right failures.

I think she is past her prime as a politician.

I don't see a difference wether the R's ran Buck or Gardner. Its a wash. I think Gardner might be too conservative to run statewide. Yeah sure he voted his district but his district is 14 points more R than the rest of the state.

This. There must be something awfully going wrong with the D brand in the US and Colorado if Gardner wins. This race will definitely be a precursor on whether the parties are popular after Bush and Obama.
