<p>We&#8217;ve written about this in the past, but it&#8217;s good to see a major mainstream information outlet finally pull out the media guns and start firing. In this case, it was <a href="http://www.weeklystandard.com/Content/Public/Articles/000/000/015/316nfdzw.asp">Fred Barnes and the Weekly Standard</a>.</p>
<blockquote><p><em>Last January, a &#8220;confidential&#8221; memo from a Democratic political consultant outlined an ambitious scheme for spending $11.7 million in Colorado this year to crush Republicans. The money would come from rich liberal donors in the state and would be spent primarily on defeating Senate candidate Bob Schaffer ($5.1 million) and Representative Marilyn Musgrave ($2.6 million), who are loathed by liberals for sponsoring a proposed constitutional amendment to ban gay marriage. The overarching aim: Lock in Democratic control of Colorado for years to come.</em></p></blockquote>
<p>As Barnes points out, Tim Gill and three other super wealthy Liberals are pretty much looking control the Government in the state of Colorado with almost $12,000,000 in cash. It&#8217;s interesting to note that <a href="http://leftwatch.blogivists.com/2008/05/09/tim-gill-dabbling-in-oklahoma-politics/">Tim Gill is now sticking his fingers into Oklahoma politics as well</a>, so Oklahomans should be aware of what might be coming.</p>
<p>And let this be a warning to virtually every other free state in the union as well.</p>
<blockquote><p><em>The Democratic surge in Colorado reflects the national trend, but it involves a great deal more. There&#8217;s something unique going on in Colorado that, if copied in other states, has the potential to produce sweeping Democratic gains nationwide. That something is the &#8220;Colorado Model,&#8221; and it&#8217;s certain to be a major topic of discussion when Democrats convene in Denver in the last week of August for their national convention.</em></p></blockquote>
<p>Have no doubt, the super wealthy, far left, anti-free market crowd is looking to dominate state and local governments. Once they have control they will empower unions even further, pile on the tax increases, cause significant damage to the economy, and pretty bankrupt the American dream.</p>
<p>Be warned.</p>
