We did not choose to endorse incumbent Macon Cowles this year. We found him to be particularly tone-deaf to his constituents -- who include those who agree and disagree with him -- particularly on the compatible development issue. Several candidates pointed out that at the end of even very heated arguments over new ordinances or changes to the law, we're all still neighbors. Cowles attitude seemed, to us, to be that Boulderites who don't like council decisions can leave the city. That's not the kind of leadership Boulder needs as it faces tough decisions about our future.

We could choose to change the rules if we wanted. I think most reasonable people understand that nobody is buying anything for a few hundred dollars contributed to a few campaigns and the time is wasted. On the other side those that are critical of this fundraising would also lose their easy negative campaign scare tactics and may be hesitant to change the rules as well.
The real "buying" of influence comes from the behind the scenes efforts of our no growth/no change political machine. This will not be changed by minor alterations to campaign finance laws.
