Hammered for support of Ref C, Norton still not talking to press

Maybe John, who wrote this article, doesn't watch FOXNews. Just last week Jane Norton appeared with a reporter, unscripted, on live national television answering questions about her campaign. She has travelled all over the state speaking to voters face to face – maybe you were not able to attend those meetings John. Many of us did. You failed to mention that Jane Norton has a history of cutting spending in the departments she ran in Colorado government and that she has signed a taxpayer protection pledge to not raise taxes in Congress, she supports a balanced budget amendment to force Congress to cut spending and earmark reform – maybe you are not able to read her notes to the voters. You also fail to note that the guy running radio ads against her (Mr. Wiens) himself voted multiple times to actually raise taxes. You also failed to mention that Mr. Buck can't raise money so he is using under-the-table money from outside special interests to tear Jane down. Maybe your real goal here is to support Michael Bennet and Barack Obama's massive spending??

I consider it a point in Jane Norton's favor that she's smart enough to not talk to the lefty, liberal media at this point in the campaign. She doesn't need to right now because we're only at the primary stage and, right now, she only needs to reach the people in her party who can vote in the primary, e.g., Republicans. Not independents, who cannot vote in primaries because they don't have enough courage of conviction in their beliefs to take a stand and declare a party, and certainly not Democrats, who would just take any gaffs or poorly worded statements she might make and stuff them in their hip pockets where they'll be handy to whip out later and twist is all around–should she win the primary–when the real battle begins with Michael “Who?” Bennet.

I originally thought I was a Ken Buck supporter because he's done a good job as my county DA, but now I'm leaning toward Jane Norton despite her past support of Ref C as Lt. Governor. She pretty much had to “get in the boat” with her boss at the time, Governor Bill “Sell Out” Owens, who supported Ref. C and also signed an illegal Executive Order reinstating Colorado's Baby Brady system. I know what that's like, being forced to choose between keeping your job or “getting on board” with your boss and putting on a happy face, despite your personal opinion. She's explained her past support to my satisfaction to where it's no longer a show stopper for me.
