For months, Senate candidate Cory Gardner has been attacked as an extremist on the issues of abortion and Obamacare’s contraception mandate. His response has been to disavow his support for a 2010 personhood amendment in Colorado and to support over-the-counter access to birth control. But a few Colorado social conservatives believe that the Republican congressman is missing an opportunity to push back against the real extremism of his Democratic opponent, incumbent senator Mark Udall.
“I live in Colorado. If you see (Udall’s) ads, you would think he’s a moderate,” former Colorado Marilyn Musgrave, now a vice president of government affairs at the pro-life Susan B. Anthony List, said in an interview. “He needs to be exposed for how his extreme he is.”
