Hmm. interesting fact to notice about tonight's House votes to reopen... (Colorado votes) [View all]

The Colorado team is as follows:

DeGette - Y
Polis - Y
Perlmutter - Y
Tipton - Y
Gardner - Y
Coffman - Y
Lamborn - N

Wonder what to make out of it.. Gardner represents the flooded part of Colorado, and has actually hurt the people but supporting the shutdown.

I think with a Dem against Gardner, he could be ousted for his hypocrisy. Hell, every Republicans here in Colorado should have a Democratic challenger all the way down to dog catching jobs.
