As you may know by now, I have decided not to run for re-election in 2010.

We just received a $25 donation from Patricia in Lakewood, our campaign&apos;s 5,000th donor.

Reaching 5,000 donors is a testament to the breadth and depth of our grassroots support across Colorado. It shows we have what it takes to give a well-connected, deep-pocketed Washingt]]></description>

It&apos;s easy to talk the talk about building a New Energy Economy. Most (if not all) governors do that.

Here in Colorado, we&apos;re seeing encouraging signs of success and reason for optimism.
