Don’t let it happen MJ. Run for something or put up a strong Dem in Bucks district who can make a difference.

This district needs a Democrat along the lies of Adam Frisch to make headway. CO 4 has a ways to go before it's competitive.

Buck’s district is one of the most fiercely conservative in Colorado. The DNC should help find a moderate Democrat who can reach across the aisle. Kind of like Adam Frisch, who is running in my conservative district. That’s the only kind of Democrat who can win out there.

I think there are options. We should do everything we can to win. Even a loss like Adam Frisch experienced with Lauren Boebert is a good beginning. As Janet noted she has not done herself any favors and we must keep up the pressure. So too, we must push the envelope and be prepared to be pleasantly surprised in Buck’s district.

As a native of the western Kansas High Plains ( 40 miles over the Colorado border, I admire your optimism. CO 4 encompasses much of Eastern Colorado and butts right up to also arch-conservative KS 1. Maybe someday; perhaps when hell freezes over? I would love to be pleasantly surprised. There is some slight hope; the meat-packing counties are tingeing ever so slightly light red instead of deep red.

We have to start some way, some day. It is part and parcel of focusing on the short and long game at the same time. Look at the western slope. Many believe Adam Frisch has good chance of unseating Lauren BooBoo :).
