Just saw an ad for “No Labels.”

Their vaunted anti-partisan façade crumbled during Colorado’s senate race in 2014, when the group came out swinging on behalf of tea party/big oil darling Cory Gardner in his bid to unseat Mark Udall. Gardner’s well deserved bought-and-paid-for reputation, in contrast to Udall’s steady and respected fair mindedness, should have been a red flag. Instead, “No Labels” proved itself to be just another republican wolf in sheep’s clothing. Pardon my cynicism, but “No Labels” would be more properly named “C’mere, suckers!” Thanks in no small part to "No Labels" Colorado lost a damned fine senator, and the Koch's gained a piss-poor substitute.
