#2 "We want a representative, not a ruler,"

What's wrong with the entire political classes in a one sentence.

#3 At least it'll burn up his reserves for the next election cycle.

Use the same tactic that the Donk used in Alaska against Sarah. Even if this recall fails, file another set at every opportunity to force him to expend his time and money to deal with it.

#4 The Donks in washington will delay and stal as much as possible, then only do a half-measure against him.

Anything to stall.

#5 Hopefully he loses, but I ain't holding my breath.

Either way, it is resources he has to use now instead of in the election.

And I agree. Our entire political class seems to be bent on ruling us.

#6 Morse is history. His district is in full revolt, and there are some heavyweights involved now (including NRA). Two other recall petitions failed to get enough signatures. A fourth (Giron) is looking like it will succeed.

There has also been a lawsuit filed by 55 CO sheriffs (out of maybe 65 total) to strike down 2 of the 4 new laws passed including the ban on 15+ capacity magazines. If that gets struck down, and if the 10th Circuit upholds, there are some other states with mag bans that will be PISSED.

When Gov. Hickenlooper signed the bills he instantly transformed from undefeatable moderate to vulnerable libtard. Several big name Republicans have jumped into next year's governor race, including Tom Tancredo. Even if he wins reelection, Hick's national prospects are probably over.

All in all, looking like CO Dems picked this hill to die on, and that they will get their wish.

#7 "All in all, looking like CO Dems picked this hill to die on, and that they will get their wish."

The funny thing is that they'll be unarmed.
