Once again the old saw about politics making strange bedfellows is proven true.

I hope he runs for the American Constitution Party, although he's clearly angling for the Republican nod. I've had a delightful summer watching Tea Partiers and Republicans savage each other's entrails. I would like to see Tancredo (one of my least favorite Coloradans) play that role. Plus, every time he gets on his hind legs and bays about the Mexicans, it generates more votes for Democrats and for more moderate conservatives.

Another instance of why we can't vote pot for pot's sake. Tancredo is a loathsome individual.

why do you feel that way about Tancredo ??
all he is doing is saying what 90 pct of Americans are saying to themselves.

If you are voting only for pot, he's our guy (right?). If we look at his views in other areas, then he doesn't look nearly as good.

Beware of the wolf in sheep's clothing. Tom Tancredo is very well known for breaking a lot of promises. Currently he is running as the American Constitutionalist party candidate--which will only derail this election. In his prior promises--he promised to term limit himself out of the congress--he didn't-- he ran for 5 terms. Under this parties foundation--they do not believe that elected officials should get paid--so I am still waiting for Tancredo to refund the citizens of the state of Colorado, the 1.8 million he received from us when he was a congressman.

Last week he stated that he would bomb Mecca--and call for the impeachment of Obama--(even though there are no grounds to do that)--LOL. He is just another typical politician--stating anything to get votes.

This latest ploy--by backing legalizing marijuana is just another ploy to get support from marijuana users. Believe me--after he is done--the over-regulation and cost will be way too expensive to even smoke it. He will tax it out of Colorado. That's the ace card he will have up his sleeve. And even if he did win this election--the odds of him being able to convince our state legislature to legalize marijuana in this state--are extremely remote.

To legalize marijuana in Colorado would require voter approval--like in California, and nothing short of that.

Basically a vote for Tom Tancredo is nothing more than a vote for John Hickenlooper. Tancredo doesn't have a snow-balls chance in hell of winning this election--he's just the spoiler in this race.

I am supporting Dan Maes--because Maes is a capitalist--who strongly campaigns in reducing the size of the state government--which in turn means--less regulation--less taxation--and less license fees for medical marijuana. He likes and would encourage private sector growth. Private sector growth includes medical marijuana.

McInnis would be a horrible governor with the recent plageriorism charges. Basically taking 300K from a foundation that he really didn't earn. Plus this guy is very anti--medical marijuana--he has made that more than clear.

I am glad he recognizes the political force of standing behind mmj.

we are never further than 1 legislative session or court hearing away from striking unconstitutional BS.

They are all republicans, so they'd all make effectively the same decisions in that they'd toe the party line.

Politicians are in office for themselves, not for anyone else. It's silly to think that one of the repubs is better than another.

They are both still republican politicians, nothing more. They can say all they want, but I don't see that anyone is different. I'm saying this having never voted for a democrat!

His remarks on Sotomayor, immigration policy in general, his stance on abortion, and much, much more. He's a real piece of work.

But that's how I feel personally, not the stance of the company.
