Ex-Colorado Gov. John Hickenlooper Ends White House Bid, Mulls Senate Run in 2020
Former Colorado Gov. John Hickenlooper on Thursday ended his longshot bid for the Democratic presidential nomination and said he may instead challenge one of the most vulnerable Senate Republicans in 2020.
…
Colorado's shift to the left could put Sen. Cory Gardner's seat in jeopardy for Republicans, and at least 10 Democrats have launched campaigns, setting up a competitive primary even before Hickenlooper, 67, makes a decision.
…
It didn't help that, by Hickenlooper's own admission, he was a mediocre debater and an erratic public speaker. In the end, he could not scrape together enough money for many of his trademark quirky ads, only launching one in which avid beer drinkers toast Hickenlooper by comparing him to favorite brews.

Colorado seems to be tiltin' ever-leftward...
If Hickenlooper (sp?) chooses to run against Cory Gardner, he'll probably win.

DENVER, CO — Former Colorado Gov. John Hickenlooper on Thursday ended his longshot bid for the Democratic presidential nomination and said he may instead challenge one of the most vulnerable Senate Republicans in 2020.
In a video message , Hickenlooper said he had heard from many in his state urging him to enter the Senate race.
"They remind me how much is at stake for our country. And our state," he said. "I intend to give that some serious thought."
