The gloves, er shoes, come off in Colorado

Earlier today, we noted the gone-viral Web video of GOP Colorado Senate candidate Ken Buck giving this response to the question why voters should support him instead of primary opponent Jane Norton: "Because I do not wear high heels."

(The context here is that, prior to this, Norton attacked Buck's manhood. “You'd think he'd be man enough to do it himself,” Norton said in an ad referring to outside groups blasting her.)

Well, Norton is now going up with a TV ad hitting Buck for the "high heels" comment.

They're both idiots. The Repubs in this state should be ashamed of who they've put on the ballot this year.

    I can't disagree. I just know the "high heels" remark says a lot and Jane Norton must not have much to offer or she would have provided some specifics about what she offers to voters and why her high heels are better than Buck's cowboy boots.

    I lost a bet once and had to wear high heels in public and it was a lot of work.

        Well, her closer "he'd fit right in!" is a perfect zinger. I don't like Norton, but that's a great quick response.
