CO-06: Mike Coffman moves to Lean Democrat

A New York Times/Siena poll taken last week showed Coffman trailing attorney and former Army Ranger Jason Crow 51 percent to 40 percent. Republicans admit Coffman has been badly outspent in the past month, but insist the race is much closer and believe a new ad that accuses "trial lawyer" Crow of representing a client who defrauded a veterans' hospital will turn things in Coffman's favor.

As his suburban Denver district has gotten bluer, the 63-year old Coffman has had to adapt to survive. He's learned Spanish and has even held fundraisers with the district's Eritrean and Ethiopian communities. But he's never had to run in this hostile a political climate, and polls suggest the bottom may be dropping out for the GOP in professional suburbs. There's still plenty of time left, but Coffman is behind today.

We've been trying to get rid of him for years. Now the district he's in is becoming more moderate to liberal. He used to be my congressman until I got gerrymandered into a district that encompasses the shit kicking land of eastern Colorado, yet I live closer to two suburbs with populations of 45,000+ But I get Ken Buck. A cowboy deplorable.
