Colorado Gov To Bloomberg: Butt Out

Colorado Governor Democrat John
Hickenlooper, still stinging from a recall vote that saw his party lose seats
in the state senate last month after members of his party followed him off the
cliff with radical gun control measures, is advising anti-2nd amendment activists
to stay out of Colorado
politics.
A new round of recalls are
expected to reach a state-wide ballot in the coming months and if they go the
way of the last ballot, the Democrats will lose control of the Senate in the Rocky Mountain
State.
Hickenlooper believes Coloradans
didn't take kindly to a big city New
York mayor like Mike Bloomberg trying to dictate gun
laws in their state:
"Colorado
is a state that people like to be themselves and solve their own
problems," the Democratic governor said in an interview with Capital
Download, USA
TODAY's weekly video newsmaker series. "They don't really like outside
organizations meddling in their affairs, and maybe the NRA gets a pass on that.
"But (it is) probably not a
bad idea" for gun-control groups,
such as the one established by New York
Mayor Michael Bloomberg, to curb their efforts if gun-rights activists
collect enough signatures to force a recall vote on state Sen. Evie Hudak, a
two-term Democrat from a suburban district north of Denver, he said.
