3rd Survey of Colorado's Political TemperatureUnderway

- After Tuesday’s election results, do Colorado conservatives feel moreconfident about 2010?- How does Ryan Frazier’s switch from the Senate to CD 7 affect views of both races?- Which of the Republican candidates for governor has the “Big Mo”?…And more!

Following their first two well-received surveys, a pair of Colorado's mostestablished and respected conservative voices in the political blogosphere onceagain invite the state's political observers and activists to share their opinions inan online survey to shed light on current state and national issues, candidates,and trends. The survey – more in-depth than your average, run-of-the-mill strawpoll – takes less than 15 minutes to complete.

The survey is available online at:http://www.surveymonkey.com/s.aspx?sm=rItEvIobdJGR353lLvGDiA_3d_3d

Recipients are invited not only to take the survey, but also to pass it on to anyonethey know who might appreciate the opportunity. Only one vote per computer orunique IP will be allowed to help ensure accuracy.“With some exciting results from the 2009 elections in the book, it’s time to see if preferences and predictions for 2010 have started to change,” said MichaelSandoval (aka El Presidente) of Slapstick Politics(http://slapstickpolitics.blogspot.com).Results and cross-tab analyses of the July and September surveys (each of whichgarnered more than 500 responses) are available athttp://www.scribd.com/Ben%20DeGrow“Like the last two, this survey is unscientific,” said Ben DeGrow of the blog MountVirtus (http://bendegrow.com). “But it should take a good pulse of the base on anumber of issues and candidates, and generate some political water-cooler talkbefore the holidays kick in.”
