Gen. Wesley Clark endorses Jay Fawcett

The Colorado GOP is falling apart, nowhere more so than in CD5. As usual, they're trying to solve their woes by playing dirty tricks on Democrats.

Take CD5 frontrunner Lt. Col. (ret.) Jay Fawcett. It appears that GOP partisans cut Fawcett's Internet lines shortly before the Democratic assembly and have pursued some questionable fundraising tactics.

Fortunately, this isn't slowing down the Fawcett campaign, which today announced that it had been endorsed by another Fighting Dem, General Wesley Clark:

"Jay Fawcett is just the kind of leader Colorado deserves to have in Washington, DC. His honorable service in the United States Air Force, his work in the private sector and his life as a family man provide Jay with the experience and perspective we need on Capitol Hill in these trying times at home and abroad. That's why I am proud to stand shoulder to shoulder with him in this campaign."

By my count, Clark has only formally endorsed 12 candidates. So it's a honor to have him single Jay out.

Can it really be that Colorado Democrats are going to be able to contest all seven congressional districts and the governor's mansion this year? Believe it or perish, sweatermonkeys.
