Denver November 2004 Election
Colorado Luis: "Ken Salazar is obviously bucking the Democratic conventional wisdom about the rural west. I think this is a smart strategy. The electorate in the urbanized part of the state, like in most of the country, is already very polarized and it will be tough to get much movement in either direction. It will largely be a matter of motivating people to vote. But rural Coloradans, for reasons I have been talking about for a long time here and at other sites, have had good cause to question why they should support the Republican Party. The rural West isn't the rural South -- Republicans can't get by just with appeals on 'cultural issues.'"
