(12,480 posts)even if the recalls pass nothing changes in the Colorado legislature.
Enormous amounts of money from out of state, the usual attempts by Repubs to fix elections, and a lot of whining over laws that even most members of the NRA agree with is making he people of these districts look pathetic.

(13,610 posts)these were from eastern CO. where many want to secede from the state. That would explain a few things. Sorry I'm out of the round on this one.
