My own view is that Diane Mitsch Bush would be the better representative for our district and would be more likely to defeat Scott Tipton. She has a deep understanding of, and sound views on, the economic and social issues we are all concerned with. She expresses herself clearly, unflinchingly and convincingly. Karl Hanlon’s views strike me as less precise.
I am particularly impressed with Diane’s character, intellect and good judgment. I think she could out-debate Scott Tipton on any issue. She is not beholden to special interests or campaign donors. She has pledged, as has Hanlon, to take no money from any corporate PAC.
Diane has strong legislative experience that would serve her well in Congress. She was a two-term county commissioner and a three-term Colorado State Representative, in each case winning elections by sizable margins. She has every one of the attributes I would hope to find in a candidate. I believe she can defeat Scott Tipton and would be a superb representative of our district in Congress.
