Cory Gardner acting with courage? Funny. Is that why he didn't have real town halls for over a year until it became politically untenable and people were clamoring? The contentious town halls were all in Republican strong holds and he still got loud and rowdy and mad. (Don't tell me that the 6 Democrats in Colorado Springs or Greeley packed the halls). 
Is that why he voted for Betsy DeVos after she gave him a big donation? Is that why he won't disavow  Pruitt, a climate change denier who is actively destroying the EPA and therefore negative impacts on Colorado and our economy.  Is that why he was on the Senate Committee writing health care legislation without including women and actively excluded those across the aisle?  Is that why he mostly meets with big donors who tell him how to vote? He has not shown courage, until the town halls. He is not acting like a true, principled, independent Republican representing the people of our state. So far, any "fruit" has been poisonous.
