While Hillary isn't as toxic as Obama is in the state, remember it is her weakest state among the 2012 battleground states. Probably not the best idea to send her here. You're probably (slightly) better off sending her to GA or NC instead of CO.

According to junk polls!

According to every poll in existence.

You've gotten into this practice of calling polls junk whenever they show the republicans ahead, no matter what organization they come from. It's really not funny, and I suggest you stop.

Another article claiming that Udall's ground game and messaging will enable him to repeat Bennet's success.

http://talkingpointsmemo.com/dc/mark-udall-2014-is-like-michael-bennet-2010

I would not want to be 4 points down as an incumbent, even with a great ground game.

Dems say Udall's internals show a tie after a consistent 2% lead last month.

Hilarious. I'm telling you that Gardner will win. I am uncertain about the gubernatorial race, but I'm only hearing great news on the ground for Gardner.

I am pretty sure Hick is going to win. Udall is another story.

Lets just stop the speculation, we know the polls may underestimate the Latino vote and the most recent ones are troubling considering it;s usually at least 2/3 D, not 56-44 etc. On the other hand, Gardner is ahead in every poll and no one should discount that either.

We really will not know the truth until the votes come in, it's pointless to speculate too much. That is why it should remain as a tossup as long as the margin is under 5. Bennet won by 1.6, Obama by 5.5 and both beat their RCP averages by about 4.5 points. Smart pollsters will learn  to correct this problem though.

PPP did a poll of just women for a liberal group. Udall leads 51/40, Hick 54/38.

Only a nine point lead? Women are sick of Mark!

Should work out to a slight Hick lead and a slight Gardner lead, I think.

I didn't realize Rick Perry was running for Senate.

If someone asked me my top three anything, I'd probably sit around and contemplate because, guess what, I have a lot of favorites and things I like. I mean, he probably could've prepared better, but this is nonsense news to me.

There are plenty of other real screw-ups in the Mark Udall re-election campaign to pick through.

I was more amused by him affirming that Common Core was good or bad for Colorado.

Considering the other five preceding questions were all "yes or no", it doesn't seem like a huge deal.

Yea, I was amused more by that too. He should've had a coffee beforehand.

The three books and a song thing obviously isn't a big deal but actually saying "We can re-tape this later, right?" and "I'm brain dead today" will probably get replayed a bit.

I just saw that Udall interview.  He is such a mess.  I can see why he is probably going to lose.

Audio of "I'm brain-dead today" is an incredibly juicy thing to put in an attack ad.
