Post endorses Rice, Marrs, centrism

Today The Denver Post endorsed moderate Democrats with military backgrounds in two Republican strongholds.

The Post noted Lt. Col. Joe Rice's resume and accomplishments:

Democrats have nominated Joe Rice, a two-tour Iraq War veteran and the successful former mayor of Glendale, for this open seat. Rice is an expert on state transportation needs and our choice over Republican Matt Dunn.

In Keeley Marrs, the paper found a candidate uniquely qualified to seize the district from a Republican who is out-of-step with his constituents:

Democrat Keely Marrs is a U.S. Army veteran whose background and understanding of water and transportation issues make her a better choice for this district than Republican David Schultheis, who obsessed on divisive social issues during his House service.
