Tancredo could blow up Colorado's GOP this fall

[SecularMotion]

HIGHLANDS RANCH, Colo. — The breakfast coffee was starting to cool when Tom Tancredo wrapped up his talk on the evils of illegal immigration and President Barack Obama and opened the floor to questions from his fellow Republicans.

One of the first: Why are you ruining Republican prospects by jumping into the Colorado governor's race as a third-party candidate?

Tancredo, a former five-term Republican congressman from Colorado , said he wouldn't be a spoiler. He won't, he said, draw votes away from an already damaged Republican nominee and allow the Democrats to win the campaign for governor.

"If I believed that, I wouldn't do it," he said. "I simply don't believe it."

He's virtually alone, however.

Even before they pick their candidates in a primary next Tuesday, Colorado Republicans fear that they're on course to lose in a battleground state they desperately want to win from the Democrats this fall.
