Kid Rock isn't that cool and it wasn't a full blown concert. Kid on acoustic guitar. Red Rocks is lovely, but it's not the easiest place to visit - the parking lots suck, and there's a long long walk up...I've had to stop many a time to catch my breath during my years of going to many, many concerts.

Let's not fool ourselves - Colorado is typically a red state. Obama hate runs deep here and we have a Secretary of State determined to disenfranchise Demorcats. Rachel Maddow touched on it tonight and it was reported a few hours ago, Gessler has found 300 illegal voters. Last week it was 14, this week 300????

People shoot bullets at Obama offices in CO, paint swastikas on Obama campaign windows.

Many here have turned on the President - it's gotten fugly.
