Buescher application sparks buzz about his chances for appointment
If case you hadn’t heard, outgoing state Rep. Bernie Buescher, D-Grand Junction, has thrown his hat into the ring to succeed Congressman-elect Mike Coffman, R-Colo., as the next secretary of state.
Buescher’s application — along with one from outgoing Speaker of the House Andrew Romanoff, D-Denver — has received quite a bit of attention online. From Coloradopols: “With a tip of the hat to our resident applicant, most would agree that Buescher and Romanoff are the two standouts on this list — and a cursory look at the pros and cons of each suggests that Buescher would be the strongest candidate to hold the seat for Democrats in 2010.”
