Both Ways Bob experiences zen (and other scenes from the campaign trail)

The Grand Junction Sentinel reports that Both Ways Bob Beauprez had a moment of clarity at the Colorado Water Congress on Friday:

"It's important that we let science drive good policy and not some other agenda," Beauprez said.

Stem cell research advocates and climate change experts everywhere promptly smacked themselves on the forehead.

The Denver Post tells us that Beauprez also advocated throwing some money at the drought:

He said cities can do even more to encourage conservation, such as cash incentives offered by Las Vegas...

Beauprez added, "Hey, we can just print extra money, right? That's how we did it in DC."

In Florida, Republican senate candidate Katherine Harris (yes, that Katherine Harris) seems to be channeling Beauprez's runningmate Janet Rowland. From CNN:

U.S. Rep. Katherine Harris told a religious journal that separation of church and state is "a lie..."

Yeah, and the whole freedom of speech thing, that's just one of those urban legends. Like the alligators in the New York City sewers.

On Colorado Matters today, Bill Ritter and Beauprez answered questions about abortion, stem cell research and gay marriage. Here's the link.

Speaking of abortion, Colorado Media Matters is tracking Beauprez's ongoing attempt to distort Ritter's comments during the KBDI debate.

And finally our opposite number at ToTheRight points out that Bill Ritter still has a healthy lead in the race, 46% to 39%.
