3. No, I Don't Want To Gloat
But with all the posturing over the past few days about how Miles was gonna walk away with the primary, it's very quiet here today...

2. OK. I took of my sign.
Happy now? I'll vote for Salazar, but I stand by what I said about him.

P.S. - I STILL think Salazar is making a mistake by leaving his AG position when he could elevate himself as a Governor and a darned good one too - hell, beat Mallard for Senate in 2008 if so desired.

4. And I Stand By What I Said About Salazar
Edited on Wed Aug-11-04 02:05 PM by CO Liberal
I believed that he was more electable than Miles, and 73% of the Democrats in this state agreed with me.

Now it's on to November, and squishing Peter Coors like the vile cockroach he is.

5. there is
no need for this. Its time to move in so we can win this seat and others throughout the state. Its time for Dems to be united.

7. Exactly
The Miles supporters need to get together with us Salazar supporters and do everything we can to put our party's nominee over the top.

I would have done the same if last night's outcome were reversed.

8. I'm a Miles supporter
I have tried not to be obnoxious about it. Your guy won. I was pretty confident that he would. I didn't support Miles because I thought he had a strong likelyhood of beating the party machine and big money. I supported Miles because I think that he is the better, more qualified candidate, and the one who more closely reflects my values and beliefs. Nevertheless I do plan on supporting and voting for the nominee.

I do hope that we're not going to see a bunch of sore winners and gloating on here. That isn't really helpful to anyone, least of all to Ken Salazar and the possibility of winning a Senate seat for the Democrats.

I will take down my offensive Mike Miles sig when I get around to it.

9. This is not going to help anyone.
Like you, I voted for Salazar because he was the more practical choice. The major problem with such a late primary is that the rifts tend to get really large and it makes it harder to get behind the nominee. Gloating also causes this. I do like a lot of what Miles stood for too, though the Seabiscut reference was a little over the top. I also liked Salazar and felt that he was the more electable candidate. Petty bickering is not going to help us.

10. I'm Not Gloating
I want everyone to keep talking so we can work together to send Pete Coors back to the beer factory.

12. I Can't Drink Any More...
...because of the meds I take for my back pain. But if I did, it wouldn't be Coors' Beer.

13. The Mike Miles supporters are a class act!
I voted for Ken. But the Mike folks always posted cogent postings. I hope that some day very soon we'll have the pleasure of electing him to another office. Why not to a Congressional seat if not to a high local office?

Congratulations to Miles supporters for running a class campaign! :pals:
