You'll note the posting titled "Weekend Open Thread" has been removed. Thanks to a discussion about people's personal lives and dating habits that seemed to not end and have no relevance to politics, we've decided to simply remove the entire post and comments. Frankly, it got too cumbersome to wade through all the posts and try and weed out those that were inappropriate.
As we've said in the past, if you post unfounded rumors or personal attacks that cross the line, we'll remove the post. If it continues, we'll block you from posting on the site.
We don't like to take these actions because Colorado Pols is a place where people can come and freely discuss politics in our state. We're sure there are plenty of places on the Internet where discussions of dating habits and personal lives are routine. Please use those if you feel compelled to discuss these sorts of things.
Great move!

We forgot to add that posting under a false name with intent to make people think you actually are that person will lead to comments being removed and future comments being blocked.
And, before everyone gets their knickers twisted up pointing out that Alva, James and Jesse are not real names, you know what we mean.

I think your move might protect you from any libel suits. Good luck.

What about my posting on the weekend thread from the Coors campaign? I thought it was pretty well thought out and didn't deserve to be removed.

I guess you'll need to re-post it. But must you? I have to say, I'm tired of Phaseout banter.
