Good on Colorado voters. Hopefully this is a good lesson to those elected to represent their constituents. Don't lie to get elected then push your own agenda.

This is how the system was supposed to work...bad news for a lot of agenda driven politicians!

From the article:
"The successful recalls would mean that in January, Democrats will hold just an 18-17 margin, which is bound to make it more difficult for them to advance an agenda."

This is doable, since only one Democrat swing vote can carry the day on an issue.

    This is strange. When you click the link from the HOT category it goes straight to the story. If you click in from above you have to answer a survey. If you go under the HOT heading and click comments it goes to a foreign language page???
