During the recent sham state meeting conducted by the deposed Republican state chairman, Dave Williams, one of his enthusiastic defenders declared he was the “best state chairman in 40 years.” If driving the Colorado Republican Party into a laughable pile of wreckage is the standard for such a grandiose claim, then yes, Williams is the…

The regime that runs the Colorado Republican Party is succeeding in making the party not only irrelevant but also, in the case of younger voters, repellant. The dramatic increase of unaffiliated voters over the past 10 years is well documented. After decades of the electorate being roughly divided into thirds, unaffiliated voters now represent 48…

As Republicans and Democrats move toward their extremes, Colorado’s electorate continues to be dominated by unaffiliated voters who are voting with their feet in rejecting both parties. The most recent affiliation figures released by the Colorado Secretary of State have unaffiliated voters at 1,862,600 or 48.5%, Democrats at 997,611 or 26%, and Republicans trailing in…

A recent sham meeting of the Colorado Republican State Central Committee (CRC) was held under a bridge in Bayfield in southwestern Colorado. How fitting and appropriate a place — for a meeting of the five individuals who showed up out of a total membership of 415. In fact, the “leadership” of the party urged members…

A presidential health crisis that ultimately resulted in the first lady of the United States wielding extraordinary power while covering up the president’s condition began in Pueblo more than a century ago.

The raging dumpster fire otherwise known as the “leadership” of Colorado Republicans is facing a real challenge to its destructive mismanagement of a once great political party. Jefferson County Republican Chair Nancy Pallozzi is leading an insurrection within the 400-member Colorado Republican State Central Committee to remove Dave Williams as state chairman. She is seeking…

Don’t bother seeking the “endorsement” of the corrupt regime running the Colorado Republican Party if you actually spent your life living and working in the district where you’re running for Congress. Conversely, personally profiting off a company that imported millions of pounds of cheap Chinese goods into the United States guarantees an “endorsement” from the…

Despite being grossly outnumbered by Democrats in the state legislature, two Republican women played major roles in crafting the property tax reform bill passed on the last day of the legislative session. Sen. Barb Kirkmeyer of Weld County and Rep. Lisa Frizell of Douglas County were Republican sponsors of the bill along with their Democratic…

Dave Williams was born about a thousand years too late. The chairman of the Colorado Republican Party has launched a crusade to purge and purify the party of candidates who are not loyal and subservient to the narrow ideological agenda he has decided every Republican must swear fealty to. Dave Williams might have reveled in…
