ACU's Keene: Bob Schaffer "The Genuine Conservative" in Colorado Senate Race

ALEXANDRIA, VA - American Conservative Union Chairman David Keene reminded Colorado Republicans of former Congressman Bob Schaffer's undeniably conservative rating after reviewing Schaffer's ACU rating from his three terms in the U.S. House of Representatives. The ACU's Annual Rating of Congress is considered to be the "gold standard" of determining whether a member of Congress' voting record is conservative.

"For six years in the U.S. House, Bob Schaffer complied an unabashedly conservative ACU Lifetime Rating of 99. His near-perfect score reflects an adherence to the traditional conservative ideals of advocating tax cuts, eliminating government waste, protecting the lives of the innocent, and preserving gun owners' rights," said Keene.

"Among those vying in the August 24 Republican primary, it's clear that Bob Schaffer is the genuine conservative in the race and that is why the American Conservative Union is pleased to endorse him," concluded Keene.
