Bill Owens backtracks on FasTracks

According to a recent poll, Owens is Colorado's most popular politician. Maybe. But he's not all that well-liked by conservatives, who blame him for losing control of the state legislature and supporting Referendum C.

Both John Hickenlooper and Bill Ritter are more popular than Bill Owens by any measure that looks at both favorable and unfavorable attitudes.
Hickenlooper is far and away the most popular politician in the state by the measure.
Andrew,
According to the poll I cited, Owens has a 63% favorable rating. Hick, a 61%.
