Bob Beauprez tries to jump on the Bill Ritter bandwagon

Democratic gubernatorial nominee Bill Ritter has long held up Republican Massachusetts governor Mitt Romney's healthcare plan as an example of what a governor can do to help fix the healthcare system. I was absolutely floored to read in today's Rocky that Ritter's rival, Both Ways Bob Beauprez, is trying to claim the idea for his own. The Rocky calls Beauprez's hypocrisy out:

Beauprez predicted that Romney's "biggest lasting legacy as governor of Massachusetts will be health care reform," adding that as Colorado governor he might borrow some "good ideas" from the state-mandated health insurance plan that Romney signed into law. But it's been Ritter who has most often praised the nationally watched Massachusetts' health care experiment.
