Denver November 2004 Election
Here's a look at the reasons for Ben Nighthorse Campbell quitting the Senate from the Rocky Mountain News [March 5, 2004, "Dark before the dawn"]. Campbell is quoted as saying, "This is getting to be a much more difficult job . . . much more partisan- driven, much more single-issue driven, much angrier, more special interests who couldn't care less about the national fabric of America. They're all out for themselves." The advice from his wife, "She said she thought that I should come home, And I said, 'OK.' " Good idea.
Govenor Owens has hit on one way to get out of dealing with Amendment 23, the Gallagher amendment, and the TABOR amendment. He is considering a run for the Senate, according to the Rocky Mountain News [March 5, 2004, "Owens eyes Senate run"]. Hell Mr. Owens, they print money in Washington and deficit spending is a way of life. Much different than here in the old backwoods. Heh.
