Mt. Virtus: "I must say that Treasurer - no, make that Major - Coffman is a rare breed: one of a handful of politicians I've met willing to put greater interests ahead of his own personal and political ambitions. I suggest to you that he should be looked at as a role model. We can worry about the 2006 election later - Coffman is getting ready to play a key role in a larger and more significant mission now."
Mike Littwin writes about Coffman in his column in today's Rocky Mountain News [May 7, 2005, "Littwin: Coffman does it his way in going to Iraq"]. From the opinion piece, "At age 50, state treasurer Mike Coffman is risking everything, starting with life and limb, to rejoin the Marines and go to Iraq to help set up local and provincial governments. It's important work."
Coyote Gulch urges certain political junkies to put aside their cynicism in this matter. You can impugn Coffman's motives when he gets back to Colorado and runs for Secretary of State.
