(And time for Mr. Trumbule to highlight more information he'd clearly like voters to consider with Ms. Madison.ColeMemoirshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00686856918620545408noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11700422.post-18497900787264341672007-05-02T07:50:00.000-06:002007-05-02T07:50:00.000-06:00Congratulations, Mr. Trumbule.No doubt your contin...Congratulations, Mr. Trumbule.<BR/><BR/>No doubt your continued efforts to ruin Ms. Madison's election prospects stole some votes--Which in turn might have ended up for Ms. Bailey--allowing clearly misguided voters to elect the "worst case scenario", Sharon Bailey to District 8.<BR/><BR/>I know it's hard to believe, but I have a fear she's even going to be WORSE than Elbra Wedgeworth was in terms of approachability and accountability.<BR/><BR/>And with allegations of her husband making physical threats to someone calling him out on illegally placing campaign signs (see denverpolitics.blogspot.com), it doesn't speak well for her integrity at all.<BR/><BR/>Too late now, we're stuck with her.<BR/><BR/>Oh, and for the record, no, I didn't see (or if I did I didn't care) about the Denver flag in the Madison campaign materials. I was much more focused on the actual issues at hand.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11700422.post-34418688880719626472007-04-27T12:38:00.000-06:002007-04-27T12:38:00.000-06:00Steve:Thanks for the comment.

You see, there’s no editorial board here, just me, musing away. Is that news?<BR/><BR/>Did you see the City flag in the Madison graphics when you first saw it? I’m just curious.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03525275848593163396noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11700422.post-9227265588537698622007-04-27T11:48:00.000-06:002007-04-27T11:48:00.000-06:00Yeah, right, all you were trying to do is report t...Yeah, right, all you were trying to do is report the results of your inquiries. That's why you went to so much trouble not only to report the Madison group on their use of the icon, but then post it on your blog. <BR/><BR/>Next up... an in-depth investigation into whether Denver Direct has the city's permission to use the name "Denver" in its title..."<BR/><BR/>Good grief. This isn't newsworthy... then again, neither is most of what ends up in the Denver Post.

But I did think about the use of the US flag as well, and I don't know if there are any US rules about its use, as it seems to appear everywhere, and we can even burn it if we want.<BR/><BR/>I actually thought the Madison campaign's use of the Denver flag was very effective as a graphic. Many people I talked to said it seemed familiar but didn't immediately recognize it.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03525275848593163396noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11700422.post-19010474528147089552007-04-25T14:13:00.000-06:002007-04-25T14:13:00.000-06:00Gee, maybe you can get politicians to stop using t...Gee, maybe you can get politicians to stop using the American flag in their promotional materials too.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
