For future reference ---

You don't have to watch this right now, but please take a look at some point. My reason for asking you to do so is this: Cory Gardner is often referred to as one of the GOP's rising stars, they are grooming him for higher office; that's why he is so often seen with McConnell. Take a listen, and you have to listen fast because he's a very fast talker. He's also very adroit at slip-sliding around issues. Yes, we're pleased that he's finally decided to grace us with an appearance, but his town halls are scheduled on workdays during work hours, seriously limiting the attending demographic; and that is not accidental.

In this video, the man on stage with Gardner is Tom Norton, our thankfully term-limited Greeley mayor; as soon as he said he'd be drawing the names for people to ask questions, it was a done deal that certain people's names would not be called. Most notably in that regard, in the front row was one of the people who Gardner had arrested for protesting at his Denver office; no way that they didn't notice her in her large wheelchair, and no way were they going to give her a chance to speak or ask questions.

So like I said, take a look when you can. Familiarize yourself a bit with this guy, you're going to be seeing more of him, more's the pity. I should mention that he took the taps off his boots, but you can still see him tap dancing through deflections and distortions.
