"My election will be about political misconduct. Yes, Dave Schultheis and others will try to claim that my pro-choice positions don't match the district as perfectly as they might like, but this election and my reason for entering it doesn't have anything to do with pro choice vs pro life politics."

"This announcement would have come months ago but for a temporary time out while I determined if the treatment for my prostrate cancer would leave me incapable of walking precincts. As late as mid-March, I didn't know if I would be able to run. My treatment is over and my plumbing is mostly back to normal. I can walk.

I need to clear some things up as I begin."

"It has been reported to me that Dave Schultheis did not go to the Lincoln Day dinner. In addition, he was invited to go to be on the Jeff Crank show. He ducked that.

"The Denver Post reports that Senator Dave Schultheis is objecting to the Colorado Department of Transportation spending $15,000 for Spanish language seat belt ads.

Federal law says that anyone who shows up at an emergency room must be treated even if they don't have insurance. If any of these 59 unbuckled Latinos were uninsured and lived long enough to get to an emergency room, and the odds are that some did, it cost Colorado insurance payers much more than $15,000 to treat him before he died.

We all pay for those "free" emergency room visits.

"Sen. Dave Schutheis, R-Colorado Springs, is asking several fellow Republicans to wear black armbands this week to protest President Barack Obama's decision to end a funding ban on overseas groups that perform abortions."
