So far this year, Democrats have provided most of the head-scratching, what-in-the-world-are-they-thinking news. See former Colorado House Speaker Crisanta Duran’s decision to challenge U.S. Rep. Diana DeGette instead of running to unseat Sen. Cory Gardner, and state Senate Democratic leadership keeping the lights on during a bomb cyclone. Truly puzzling political strategy. Now it’s the Republicans’ turn to leave Colorado’s political class with mouth agape. We all knew recalls were coming.
