Democratic Sen. Mark Udall and his Republican challenger, Rep. Cory Gardner, met Thursday night in Pueblo for their third debate this week, although some observing the debate seemed to think the raucous crowd could have handled the debate themselves.
I'm at the #cosen debate in Pueblo, and the crowd is screaming at each other already. This should be fun. #copolitics

Feminist superhero “Mark Uterus” found himself booed by Gardner defenders after he dropped back to his safety position of women’s reproductive rights.

Udall gets heartily booed when he first mentions WoW in Pueblo #CoSen debate. His campaign has worn thin and he's the last to know it.
