Sure we've all heard about the Colorados newly elected senator Ken Salazar ... for hispanic senator in 25 years and a Democrat in a state that went to the Republicans but there is another interesting piece here that the press does not seem to havetmentioned. Colorado also elected a Salazar to the House... John Salazar... Kens big brother.

Good men, both of them. Farmers. Interested in local water rights and preservation of family farming interests. John has an idea for tax breaks to farmers who will help provide health care for their employees.

And that's any different than Bush's brother being the governor of a state he won this election (I still question that one) and stole the last election? Nope, no conflict of interest there.

Poor Cheryl. Bitter that Ohio went for Pres Bush.

Yes, somewhat bitter.
I'm from Colorado, and it seemed like this state voted more for the candidate than for the Party, which I totally agree with. Colorado voted for Bush, but then voted in Democrats to hold the majority for both the State Senate and House. The Salazar brothers seem to have their priorities set...let's hope they serve well!

koto, Colo's case just helps make the case that when it came to president, people voted their fears and their faith, rather than their rational thought.
