Republican Senate Candidate’s High Heels Comment Revealed

(CNN – Ken Buck, a Republican Senate candidate in Colorado, is causing a stir after recent comments asking voters for support “because I do not wear high heels.”

The off-color remark that drew roaring laughter at a recent campaign event, came in response to an ad campaign from his GOP opponent in the primary race, former Lieutenant Gov. Jane Norton. In the ads, Norton says Buck is not “man enough” to attack her in person but instead lets third-party groups do it.

“She has questioned my manhood; I think it’s fair to respond,” says Buck to more laughter from the crowd. “I have cowboy boots on. They have real bull- on ’em. That’s Weld County bull-, not Washington D.C. bull-.”
