Denver November 2004 Election

Here's the coverage of Peter Coors decision to run for Ben Nighthorse Campbell's, U.S. Senate seat, from the Rocky Mountain News [April 8, 2004, "Coors in Senate race"]. From the article, "Coors, the 57-year-old chairman of the Adolph Coors Co., avoided reporters Wednesday. Bruce Benson, a former state Republican Party chairman and a longtime friend, said Coors plans a public announcement next week...Several analysts wondered how Coors would handle his first run for office. 'It will be interesting to see if he can take it,' said Dan Baum, a Boulder author who wrote the book Citizen Coors about the Coors family, 'because he comes from a notoriously thin-skinned family that has always interpreted any criticism of its actions as a personal attack.' Duffy warned that Coors faces intense scrutiny - not just of himself, but of his company."

More coverage from the Rocky here [April 8, 2004, "Is the Coors name a silver bullet?"]. Mike Littwin serves up some opinion in his column in today's Rocky [April 8, 2004, "Littwin: Coors brews up GOP bitterness with Senate bid"]. According to Littwin, "You can ask what makes a political neophyte such as Coors a more likely candidate to beat (Attorney General Ken) Salazar, but you already know the arguments. Coors has money. Name recognition. Face recognition. And twins. (I can't wait for the campaign ads.)"
