Word is Senate President John Morse conceded and Senator Angela Giron is getting close to getting the boot as well

Good news!

http://coloradopeakpolitics.co...-the-latest-returns/

Yes 56%

No 43.9%

100 % reporting

Those two needed to go, as do many other elected officials who do NOT represent their constituents.
Now, let's get rid of our lousy governor.

Good going Colorado!
Remember, there is no such thing as a "good" Democrat and hasn't been for the past 35 years or more.

Thank you Colorado voters !

Congratulations to the voters in Colorado.

Not only have they removed part of a cancer that is effecting their state, but they have set a standard and sent a message to the rest of the states, If You Have A Politician Not Representing You In The Manner They Should Be, With A Little Work, They Can Be Removed From Office.

Coloradans have awakened and started the house cleaning, the rest of us need to get off of our collective asses and follow their example.

Great news, congrats and hopefully they learn better not to mess with voters guns.

Great news. Brightened up my day

Very refreshing.

Disappointing that it is not getting the media play it deserves. Search engine results are pretty sparse. Heard one short blurb on FOX NEWs this morning. I expected as much, but it really highlights the inequities in the "reporting."

The good thing about it is, those two libtards are gone and replaced by Republicans.

The even better thing is, this gives other libtard politicians a heads up that, in order to keep their cushy little gig, they should steer clear of pandering, unreasonable, ineffective so-called gun control measures.

Bottom line, nothing is more important to a politician than staying in office.

Congrats to the Colorado voters, Democrat, Republican and independent who made this recall successful.

Damn I wish we could do the same for Barry O'Dipshit.

Now that the good people of Colorado have made a stand for themselves, I wonder if all those folks who said they would never step foot in Colorado because of the gun control laws still have the same agenda to boycott Colorado?

Ain't it perddy Drum?????

This should put "the fear" into the rest of the idiots. A clear message has been sent from CO voters. Leave our guns alone, or you will loose your seat.

I love it when our system works.

Its so purdy! We still have a lot of work to do but we are headed in the right direction

It's a good start!

Pick out the next two most egregious violators of the Constitution in CO and remove them. In a year you could make CO what it was when I was in the hospital at Ft Carson in fall of 1971.

You guys in other dumocrat states take note. It can be done!!!!!

Well done!!!

It's pretty great. It is absolutely crystal clear why these two were removed from office. And I would expect a pretty vigorous press from the gun owners of Colorado to get rid of the BS gun laws.
I wish we had organizations like the NRA in place to defend all the rest of the constitution.

It is not a case of having the NRA in place, it is a case of getting the average person to understand the concept that our politicians can or will attack ANY of the freedoms we were guaranteed when we gained our Freedom from England.

If folks will quit focusing on our Second Amendment rights and shift to the realistic potential of losing ALL of our rights, people will wake up and get involved.

Once Americans understand that destroying the Rights guaranteed by the Second Amendment, is merely a stepping stone and a means to strip us of other rights, they will start voting these bastards out of office.

Fire them all!!!

Nope! I for sure won't. The only reason I would have ever boycotted the state is because of "the people" of the state violating the 2nd ammendment to the US constitution. This shows me that "the people" of Colorado are NOT against the Bill of Rights.

I am certainly happy for these people and for me too!

God bless the American People.

This is whats frustrating, we had been telling everybody from the beginning that "the people" of Colorado didn't want this! Our chickenshit governor and some politicians got together and with pressure and help of Washington had enough votes to push these HIGHLY UNPOPULAR bills through.

The people of Colorado were pissed and then like minded Americans started to "boycott" us and they turned their back on us. If you were for a boycott then stay the f**k out of CO! We don't want you here, we don't need you here. You're not our friends and the people that boycotted the state did NOTHING for us. When there is a fight real friends don't run and then show back up when the fight is over

The only time these clowns that were for a boycott will hear from me is when they face the same issues in their state because I will help in any way. I don't know how to turn my back on fellow americans that are pro gun and pro constitution

Drummond, Good points and well said however you guys still have some more work to do.
From what I read there are two politicians, one in Durango (my favorite part of the state) that supported the anti-gun agenda and are still in office. News sources said that not enough recall signitures could be mustered for either. This all tells me how many Kalifornicators have moved in these areas.
By the way I have been supporting you guys. I donate to the NRA and NRA-ILA as well as verbal support.
Good going guys but the (our) fight aint over by a long shot!

I know you support us and are in it with us. We do have work to do but we are going to get it done! We didn't win the war with the recall, we just won the battle

Its a good start it remains to be scene what the long term effect is.

We smashed the dems in the house in 94 but it took until 2004 and the sunset of the ugly weapons ban to go away.

I don't have much hope in turning back the new laws.

As hard as it is to get a new law passed it is twice as hard to do away with one.

I agree about the chances of a repeal. Would have to flip the House, Senate, and have a Governor with balls to take the heat.

That said, miracles do happen, the last time Pueblo sent a Senator to Denver was 1934...

Well Drumm.....I hate that you feel that way but those of us from outside of Colorado didn't get a vote other than voting with our "pocket books" so to speak.

We really had no meat in this game other than the foolishness spreading.

I personally think the boycott, or threat thereof motivated some people that might not have voted in the recall to get off their asses.

Sure am sorry you don't agree with my actions but my motives where pure.

I was calling it " DEMORADO " earlier this year.
Great to hear you guys kicked some ass there.
Give them Greyhound bus ticket One way only of their choice.
Preferably NY, WA D.C. or something like that.

I don't doubt your motive but as I argued months ago when people were threatening a boycott you have got to be strategic! A blanket boycott does nothing and if all you do in CO is hunt and fish you would hurt like minded individuals and do nothing to hurt the liberal assholes that put these laws into place. These libs don't give a shit if people don't come to hunt. Rural Colorado relies on the dollars from hunting and fishing and they are good honest Americans that deserved better than to have people turn their backs on them.

I also disagree that the boycott or threat of a boycott had anything to do with it. Those that chose to boycott shouldn't pat themselves on the back and think they did a goddamn thing. The tags still sold and people were still coming to hunt.

Personally, I don't think your a bad guy, I just think that the boycott was a bad decision. I dislike fair weather fans. Take the good with the bad and if there is an injustice I dont feel like you should turn your back on it. If you chose to boycott CO then stay out and boycott it and at least stick to your guns.

You guys should have seen the lines at the Cabelas at Lone Tree and Thornton for the grand openings last month. They broke the record for attendance at both locations on the same day! The majority of the people in CO LOVE the rights guaranteed to them by the constitution and the recall proved it

We have a long way to go but we won't stop. If you boycotted CO just know its not over and you should stay away

I know it's not over.

Fair enough, I never lost anything in Colorado I need to go back for. I have however spent plenty of money there in the past.

Best of luck to ya' keep 'em on their heels.

Look, I am projecting my frustrations about the entire boycott on you and thats not fair to you. For that I sincerely apologize.

I have strong feelings about this because I know a lot of people that a true boycott would devastate. I feel that we don't need collateral damage in this deal. I am not opposed to boycotts as long as they are strategic in nature and really hurt your intended targets. A blanket boycott of the entire state of CO is like cutting of the nose to spite the face and I find it grossly irresponsible and I am surprised that conservatives/republicans/outdoorsmen and women and constitutionalists would resort to something so emotional. I would expect an emotional response from the left, I was stunned that many on the right felt that this was the answer.

Anyway, I think I was out of line to JTEX and wanted to apologize for venting on him and him alone.

Just an observation, but for anyone willing to boycott Colorado over something they could not prevent, but have begun to rectify, are you also boycotting America for re-electing a President that has repeatedly shown disdain for our country and the rights of its citizens???????????????

Touche Crazyhorse
Growing up in Commie land, I see lots of those signs in majority demos and some Repubs and I wonder about their way of thinking ( Power corrupts and doesn't differentiate who is who ) and scares the living shit out of me.
And our president is my worst nightmare since I came here in 30 years.
It's like some kinda De'javu
Please tell me this is not so...

Observatin' right back atcha' Ran'l.

I am boycotting everydamnthing I can that I don't agree with.

Postponing income all I can, to not pay taxes that I can legally avoid. Not spending money with businesses that are following what in my opinion are outside of American values. Not expanding my business as I could to provide employment for those that vote against me.

Sending money to politicians and people that ARE doing what I consider the right thing ( damn few of those )........my money so yes, I do get to decide....

Drumm......we're okay. I can for sure understand your frustration, I can sympathise with your position. You see it one way, I another. At this time at least, this is still America and while we may not agree, I am 100% behind your being able to have your position. You too Ran'l.

I am very happy for the Americans in Colorado that they rose and kicked some ASS there. They set a fine example. But due to some reason or another those very same people that where able to vote in the recall allowed the ones kicked out to be elected in the first place. APATHY????? Not being involved, informed? I would think so..... I believe I heard that more voted in the recall than voted in the original election???

I don't go to Kaliphornia and spend money, or New York or DC, I won't support their politics.

If we all became active and did what we thought was right this country would get back on track and fast!

While we may not agree on each others actions we KNOW we must become active.

I'd share a beer with either of you fellas any day....( might have to be in Texas though since Drumm won't let me back in Colorado........... )

I understand your position J. I just view a boycott as a case of kicking folks that did not want the legislation passed in the first place, but because they are in the minority, simply could not change the outcome, at that point in time.

Fortunately things have changed, but it does not change the fact that people such as guides/outfitters/small business owners in the areas outside the Denver-Fort Collins-Colorado Springs corridor, people that were already facing hard times due to the economy, are now being boycotted over happenings they had no real control over.

I simply can not agree with adding insult to injury.

But yes J setting down and sharing a beer or two with you is agreeable.
