Battle in CO-5

I meant to comment on this Mason-Dixon poll from CO-5 the other day. Even despite the post-primary ugliness and dissention in the district on the part of the GOP, it's still a bit of a shocker.

Republicans say they'll easily hold the seat, but Democrats believe that retired USAF officer and Gulf War vet Jay Fawcett has a shot at the upset. Either way, it's probably true that this year is the best chance the Dems have ever had to crack the CO-5 nut, which has never voted their way in 34 years. The Rocky Mountain News has more details.
