Ku Klux Klan endorse Colorado Republican.

You can find the KKK page in question yourself without too much effort. I'm not linking it.

I've said it before, and I'll undoubtedly say it again: When the only people who support your position are the bigots and the ignorant, and both groups are PROUD of being ignorant, bigots, or both - don't you really have to rethink your position carefully? Hmm?

Today is a day that it sucks to live in a square Western state, and this is why. *is mortified to live in Colorado, even if I am mostly a Democrat*

Therein lies a plot...

to destroy a political opponent!

Pay off a bunch of lunatic fringe groups to rally to the support of your political rivals. Genius!

Prolly bindun as well.

Except, of course, that fringe groups tend to have their position and their prejudices well defined in advance, and yes, it has been done. Hell, it was done in 2004 when Bin Laden said Bush was the greatest thing to ever happen to Al Qaeda.

It's only really damaging when the fringe loonies agree with you and promote you *because you're playing to their core desires*, and they simply point out that yes, you're JUST LIKE THEM with a touch of cleaner language.

(It's especially bad when the ONLY people who support you are the KKK, the Minutemen, the John Birch Society, the Heritage Front, and the other militant white supremacists. That's happened, a few times, on immigration debates over the years.)
