Are you kidding me? This guy is horrible. He’s a trustfunder. He inherited $160 million from the $780 million sale of Blue Mountain Arts, which was ballooned and destroyed people’s lives. More than 1300 people lost their jobs because of this sale. He’s doing the same thing to our country. He’s not an entrepreneur. He was born to wealth. He didn’t start Blue Mountain Arts. His mommy and daddy did FIVE years before he was born. His parents got him into their alma mater, Princeton. He only helped balloon the price to destroy jobs for his own greed. Buy a background check on him. You’ll see most of his companies employed one (himself) to three people. He bought his seat. Read The Blueprint. He’s never worked a real job. Everything has been handed to him.

Where does Rep. Polis stand on:

1. Trade promotion authority and export promotion?
2. Patent reform, especially first-to-file?
3. Immigration reform?

Since Dec 2008, Colorado has lost more than 120,000. The national employment rate has increased from 7.1% to between 9.5% and 10.0% (after excluding anyone that it is inconvenient to include, i.e., those who have "given up" looking for a job). If creating jobs is your standard and motivation, then I'm sure Polis created far more jobs (even after the dot-com bubble that inflated the value of his companies burst) as a private citizen. Therefore, logic dictates that you should be doing everything possible to get him out of Congress and back to private life!
