Beetleboob Blasted As Carpetbagger During Debate

Axios reports:

U.S. Rep. Lauren Boebert defended her mountains-to-plains shift in congressional districts, even as Republican rivals used the contest’s first debate Thursday night to suggest she is a carpetbagger and hypocrite.

She addressed it at the start, announcing she just moved to the area and signed a lease for a home in nearby Windsor. “I am here to earn your vote. This is not a coronation,” she said. “The crops may be different in Colorado’s 4th District, but the values are not,” she added.

The remark did little to quell the questions. None of the eight other candidates on stage said they would support Boebert if they weren’t running and she placed fifth in an informal straw poll. The open animosity reflects a Republican primary that is devolving into a clown-car crash.

“Can you give the definition of ‘carpetbagger’ to me?” Rep. Mike Lynch asked Boebert…

“My boys and I needed a fresh start,” she responded, referring to her family mess!

That explains why she needs us — but why do we need her? #CD4 #CoPolitics https://t.co/RIG0vvvipG
