Bennet Gets Backing From Former Contender Hart: Campaign Update
In 1984, the forward-looking Colorado Senator Gary Hart shocked Democratic politics by winning a surprise victory in the New Hampshire presidential primary. Now another senator from Colorado, Michael Bennet, is hoping his predecessor’s endorsement can help him pull off a similar upset.
Hart will campaign with Bennet at three stops in New Hampshire on Saturday, the campaign said.
“A number of years ago, the voters of New Hampshire provided an opportunity for a young Colorado senator to build a strong national candidacy,” Hart said in a statement. “They have the chance now to do it again. Michael Bennet has the intelligence, experience, and judgment to put our nation back on track at home and abroad.”
The Hart political story didn’t have a happy ending. After losing the 1984 nomination to Walter Mondale, Hart ran again for the 1988 nomination. While denying rumors of womanizing — and challenging reporters to follow him around — he withdrew from the race in May 1987 following allegations of an affair with Donna Rice. A tabloid photo emerged of Hart with Rice sitting on his lap before a cruise on a yacht called the Monkey Business.
