Colorado Freshman Democrat Betsy Markey in trouble

Time Magazine Campaign 2010: Races to Watch features Freshman Democrat Betsy Markey.

Time says Markey is in one of the toughest races in the country as she battles state Rep. Cory Gardner in the high plains of northern Colorado.

The Time Magazine photo above shows Markey and Gardner.

Gardner is a popular fifth generation Coloradoan and is proving to be a formidable foe.

Markey was elected in 2008 on the weakness of her opponent rather than her own strength.

During her time in the House, she did not fairly represent her conservative constituents.

The majority of voters in Loveland, Fort Collins and Greeley are too conservative for a representative who follows the Obama/Pelosi liberal agenda 94% of the time.
