Colorado next to last for stimulus aid


Good news and bad news.

The good news is that Colorado isn't as bad off economically as a lot of other states.

The bad news is that it means that we're second-to-last in the country in terms of how much aid we'll receive from Obama's stimulus package.

But I wonder why Obama came to Colorado to sign a stimulus bill that puts us 49th out of 50 states as far as aid we will receive?

Why didn't he go to the very bottom--Utah--to sign it?

I guess Utah doesn't need the money because they have all those rich Mormons there who are able to spend millions of dollars fighting same-sex marriage in other states.
