Instead, he’s continuing to take his cues from the Democratic ruling class and is backing Hillary Clinton.
Michael Bennet’s penchant for placing Beltway Democrats on a pedestal shouldn’t be too surprising. After all, in 2014, Bennet voted with President Obama 100% of the time.
This is exactly why Michael Bennet is wrong for Colorado — Coloradans deserve a Senator who is their voice, not someone who is taking orders from Washington Democrats.
The Denver Post reports:
Three top Democratic superdelegates in Colorado are facing pressure to support Bernie Sanders after he easily won the state’s presidential preference poll, but all are remaining committed to Hillary Clinton.
…
Bennet felt the pressure last week after a speech at the University of Denver law school. A member of the audience urged him to support Sanders.
Bennet didn’t budge.
This isn’t the first time Bennet has subverted the will of voters.
Michael Bennet also stands with Hillary Clinton and President Obama in support of the dangerous plan to close the Guantanamo Bay detention facility even though that could mean the detainees are transferred to Colorado.
The Colorado Springs Gazette blasted the plan that Bennet supports and 41 Colorado Sheriffs wrote to the President in opposition to transferring detainees to Colorado.
