Presidential candidate John Hickenlooper knocks DC politicians: They just spend their time 'pointing fingers'
In a brief speech and question-and-answer session with voters at Confluence Brewery on Friday, Hickenlooper repeatedly returned to his theme that politicians in Washington do little to bring people together and are ill-equipped to lead the executive branch."People in Washington, they spend their time talking about things and debating and pointing fingers," Hickenlooper told voters."It's about time to bring things together and get things done.
He and his team believe that his decades of executive experience -- after running a successful brewpub, Hickenlooper served as mayor of Denver and governor of Colorado -- set him apart from the more high-profile Democrats who are running, and it was clear on Friday that the governor will try to cast Washington as incompetent during his bid.
