Salazar is no Ben Nighthorse Campbell. Campbell was an embarassment as a Dem, and even as a Republican. Loved to ride motorbikes, hated the concept of work. Got absolutely nothing done in WDC.

Salazar is preparing himself to pull a Nighthorse halfway through his term. Colorado got suckered again. These guys from southern CO are just too close to Texas to be real Democrats if something else suits their own agendas. Like HRC, they are Dems as long as they need the party to get elected.</p> I agree with James in #57. Salazar is preparing himself to pull a Nighthorse halfway through his term.

Has he cast any vote, since then, of which Dobson would not approve? Taken one stand about a controversial issue, other than the attempt to work toward withdrawal in Iraq, which the military family constituency might back, if silently?

Thought so.

That’s a good summary. Salazar is a moderate, and those votes reflect the political makeup of Colorado (which has a surprisingly large number of independents).

It does not reflect perhaps the most gutsy move of his tenure–standing up to James Dobson here in Colorado. That’s a political first in this state for a Senator.

My post is “utter nonsense”, and Salazar is a “cheap little opportunistic coward”?

Man, I love your thoughtful analysis!

I’m up and can’t sleep. My guy leaves for Iraq in 4 hours. Just wanted to check-in and see if anyone was up.

Did I mention I’m holding my breath?
