5 Colorado Senate Race Top of List Gardner by Two Points; Post Endorses Gardner vs. Udall Real Clear Politics Abut 85 percent of Colorado voters immediately decided who they supported. Since then, the lead has shifted and remains close. Gardner s current lead is just at the margin of error in the polling average.

8 Game Changer DENVER POST Endorsement The overall theme is that the best anecdote to gridlock is change. Washington is gridlocked. It needs fresh leadership, energy and ideas. Gardner has been a reservoir of ideas and leadership from the start of his career. Udall is a fine man, but not perceived as a leader and not at the center of the issues that count. Udall s multi-million dollar war on women ad campaign is now damaging him more than Gardner. As the Post says, the obnoxious one-issue campaign is insult to those he seeks to convince. Flipping the Senate to Republican control will, in their view, be more productive for the next two years. President Obama s desire for a legacy and Republican self-interest in repairing their reputation for gridlock could converge and would be enhanced in the Post s view by Gardner s election (See The Buzz, October 13). 7
