#1 Ms. Hudaks decision averts another potentially humiliating recall vote and allows a panel of county Democrats to choose her temporary successor, ensuring that Republicans cannot immediately take control of the Senate and force vulnerable Democrats into uncomfortable votes to repeal the gun laws or new regulations on rural electricity providers.

Power! Screw representative government. How Donkish.

#4 She walks away, so the Democrats get to appoint another Democrat.

That's wrong, she should walk away, And the PEOPLE select another representative, NOT the Democrats get to select.

#6 I kicked a few bucks to her recall campaign, even though I live in SoCal. I'm sad that she was able to resign and save the Denver/Boulder Dem hegemony and not get her ugly arrogant mug rubbed in a successful recall.

#7 Nothing in this article conveys just how nasty the anti-recall shock troops were, the personal attacks on volunteers, the intimidation and lies funded by out of state deep pockets. This is not democracy. It's one step shy of open revolution. That's what it took to unseat one of these apparatchiks, and even after all that the machine stays in power.
