Cracks in the Facade? Coors Backs Away From Bush (DODO*) on Iraq War


GOP Hopeful Raises War Doubts (washingtonpost.com): "The Republican candidate for the U.S. Senate in Colorado suggested yesterday that Congress would not have voted to authorize a war in Iraq if the members had known 'what we know today.' GOP candidate Pete Coors went on to say that, 'based on weapons of mass destruction,' the United States should be more concerned about Iran and North Korea than Iraq."


We suppose it is always possible that Mr. Coors simply gave his honest opinion. We also wonder what the internals of Republican polls in Colorado suggest, if Mr. Coors believes such a stance will help his electoral effforts.
