Colorado political look-alikes

Looking around the Colorado political scene, there are some who look awfully familiar. Click on "more" to see some potential long-lost twins of Colorado politicians.


Senate Minority Leader Josh Penry and former Denver Broncos safety John Lynch

Penry has said he’s “practically twins” with Lynch. That includes a football past: Penry was a star quarterback at Mesa State College.

Former Congressman Tom Tancredo and "actor" Pauly Shore

These two pictures don't really do the resemblance justice: much better evidence can be found on the blog voteforbreakfast.com.

GOP U.S. Senate candidate Cleve Tidwell and Vice President Joe Biden


While Tidwell’s combed-back white hairstyle is awfully similar to that of Biden, Tidwell's hair hasn’t yet been the subject of media speculation.

State Representative Carole Murray and Steve Carell’s manager in “The 40-Year-Old Virgin”

Unfortunately, the resemblance between Steve Carell and state Sen. Ken Kester is not nearly as pronounced.

U.S. Senator Michael Bennet and Terry from the comic strip “Terry and the Pirates.”

Who thinks Bennet would look badass in a leather bomber jacket? Nah, I don't think so, either.

Who am I missing? Most Colorado pols listed above happen to be Republicans, so let me know of some Democratic look-alikes to make this a more bipartisan list.
