Colorado may be doing away with caucuses:

Colorado lawmakers want a bigger piece of the 2016 presidential campaign spotlight.

Democratic and Republican leaders are drafting a measure to create a presidential primary in Colorado, a significant shift in one of few states with a caucus system.

The tentative bill would put the primary in a prominent spot on the 2016 calendar and make the swing state a top prize in the nominating process.

"The main point is that we bring more attention to Colorado," said Rep. Dominick Moreno, a Commerce City Democrat and assistant majority leader who plans to sponsor the bill. "Right now, Colorado is just so completely overlooked because our caucus comes too late in the process. And Colorado should be more at the forefront because we are a bellwether state."

1. i am in full support of going back to primaries

but not to bring us attention. a lot of folks can't, or just don't, caucus and i think we should all have the opportunity to have our say. if the change doesn't happen, i'm already planning on taking the day of to participate, but not everyone has that option.
