Betting it all on criminal wiretapping prosecutions. [Daily Kos] (The Liberal Blog Network)

rss@dailykos.com (Kagro X) — Sat, 05 Jul 2008 20:48:50 GMT

Rep. Mark Udall, running for Senate in Colorado, is among the House Dems who recently voted for the FISA bill . That by itself isn't particularly remarkable. It's symptomatic of running for higher office, just as the votes of Bob Menendez and Sherrod Brown for the heinous Military Commissions Act was. They both voted for it, and almost immediately after winning announced how deeply they...

We’ve been compromised (Scholars and Rogues)

Wed, 02 Jul 2008 16:55:27 GMT

Those of us who sounded off on Mark Udall’s capitulation on the FISA bill apparently all got the same nice form letter in response to our concerns. He’s happy to hear from us. Let me begin with what he wrote. Dear Sam: Thank you for letting me know your views on H.R. 6304, the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) Amendments of 2008. I appreciate hearing from you. This bill is...

The potential for a bipartisan online debate between Senate hopefuls Bob Schaffer and Mark Udall, co-sponsored and moderated by Schaffer v Udall on the right and David Thielen on the left, was killed after the Udall camp backed out after Schaffer agreed to the format and the participants: If you are one of the handful of people who have been following developments on this...

Jonathan Singer is urging donations to the Democratic candidate for Senate in Colorado Mark Udall. I am not from Colorado and Jeralyn is, but I personally would not lift a finger for Mark Udall. Why? Because he has not lifted a finger for any issue I care about. He voted for the Steny Surrender. He has never supported timelines for withdrawal from Iraq. He never has spoken...

House and Senate Roundup, 6/24 (Daily Kos)

Tue, 24 Jun 2008 23:23:36 GMT

Senate Races CO-Sen : A Garin Hart Yang poll from the DSCC confirms last week's Rasmussen result; Democrat Mark Udall leads Republican Bob Schaffer by nine points. The DSCC poll has it at Udall 46%, Schaffer 37%. Schaffer has had a pretty bad time of it so far in his campaign, but has managed to hang within striking distance in polling to date. Now, however, it certainly seems...

Per KT at StopCornyn! Just last week, Rick Noriega led in Sen. Boxer's PAC for a Change "Choose a Challenger" contest with over 30% of the vote. But with Al Franken, Mark Udall, and Tom Allen picking up momentum these past few days, they're earning more votes in the race -- and the gap is narrowing. We need your help to stay in 1st place! http://ga4.org/pacforachange/challenger_open_vote.html...

Outside vs. Inside: A Western View (NewWest.Net Politics)

Tue, 24 Jun 2008 17:20:00 GMT

Last week's vote in the House of Representatives to give big corporations who broke the law a free pass and to expand the powers of the president to spy on Americans essentially at will provided some stark contrasts among our leaders and would-be leaders. Case in point, Colorado Rep. Mark Udall and Wyoming candidate Gary Trauner. If you had to choose whether the "Boulder liberal" or the...

Mark Udall's internet ads (NDN)

Tue, 24 Jun 2008 14:15:52 GMT

Any one else notice the now ubiquitous Mark Udall banner ads on the big progressive blogs? They are among the best I've seen this year. Attractive, message-based, animated, about "joining" not about "giving." They are setting a new standard for ads below the Presidential, and are clearly inspired by the success of Obama's deep success on the net. For more on how to best use the internet...

In Which I Confront Mark Udall re: His FISA Vote (Les Enragés.org)

Since it's an election year, there are predictable amount of politicians at Denver Pride. (Strangely Congressional Rep. Diana DeGette CO-01 was not there this year, and I have seen her there consistently over the years. Anyway, that's not important. She voted the right way on FISA.) But a CO Congressional rep who voted the WRONG way on FISA was there; Mark Udall. And he's campaining for...

Mark Udall helps hold the Constitution down while Bush and his corporate buddies drive the bus over it (Scholars and Rogues)

Yesterday we here in Colorado learned a little more about our Democratic candidate for Senate, Congressman Mark Udall. And what we learned wasn’t pretty. Udall, along with 104 other collaborationist Dems , voted in favor of Bush’s latest Constitution-gutting initiative, a FISA “compromise” that makes all our talk about freedom in the US ring even hollower than it did already....

It's very sad to see such a promising congressman as Ed Perlmutter and such a promising congressman and senatorial candidate as Mark Udall sell out their constituents , their constitution, and their country, but that is exactly what they have done. Ed Perlmutter along with Mark Udall voted to allow retroactive immunity to the telecoms who knowingly and willingly aided and...

New Rasmussen poll shows Udall burying Schaffer (Steam Powered Opinions)

noreply@blogger.com (Steam Powered Opinions) — Thu, 19 Jun 2008 22:24:00 GMT

Late last month Rasmussen released a poll showing Mark Udall with a 6 point lead on scandal-plagued and error-prone GOP Senate candidate Bob Schaffer. I noted at the time that Udall's lead had grown overall but most importantly had grown to 12% amongst all important "Independent" voters. A new poll out today shows that Schaffer has continued his free fall, Democrat Mark...
