Hartsook and Frizell: The Liberty Score Losers We Can’t Afford to Keep

Well, folks, it’s official: Colorado’s grassroots conservatives are stuck with two of the most pathetic excuses for Republican leadership this side of the Rockies. House Rep Anthony Hartsook and Senator Lisa Frizell have somehow managed to stumble their way into Liberty Scores so abysmal they’d make an elementary school teacher blush, 68 for Hartsook and a pitiful 64 for Frizell. These numbers aren’t just bad; they’re a flashing neon sign screaming, “We don’t care about conservative Republican values!” Seriously, how do you even get scores this low without actively trying to tank them? Did they mix up the buttons, were they napping through the votes on individual rights, free markets, and limited government, or were they just too busy with their hands out to the lobbyists?


Let’s get real: these two are supposed to represent the beating heart of conservatism in Douglas County and serve as examples for our state. Instead, they’re dishing out a lukewarm sludge of compromise that would make the new RINO Colorado GOP Officers proud. The Liberty Scorecard, for those who don’t know, isn’t some fluffy participation trophy; it’s a brutal tally of how well our so-called leaders defend the principles we genuinely care about. Hartsook and Frizell? They’re not just failing; they’re scraping the bottom like a couple of kids who forgot their lines in the school play.


And don’t give me that: “They’re good people,” “They mean well,” “They’re doing their best.” Spare me. We didn’t send them to Denver to play nice or get invited to the right cocktail parties. We sent them there to fight. And what have we gotten? Tepid, go-along-to-get-along mediocrity wrapped in a red ribbon and sold as Republican leadership. “They’re trying their best” nonsense. If this is their best, we’re in deeper trouble than a vegan at a barbecue.


Hartsook is up again in 2026, and Frizell in 2028, dates that feel far off until you realize these clowns could use this time to further erode what’s left of our Colorado conservative backbone. It’s time to sharpen the pitchforks, folks. We need battle plans to send these two packing unless they slink onto the ballot via petition like the spineless wonders they are. 


So, Douglas County, let’s stop electing candidates who believe 68 and 64 are “close enough” for conservative principles. Hartsook and Frizell aren’t just disappointments; they’re walking betrayals of everything true conservatives represent.
