DENVER—Colorado Republican Jane Norton is kicking back after her Republican primary opponent made a dig about her footwear.

Norton started airing a statewide ad Wednesday bashing Buck for telling a voter in a videotaped remark to vote for him “because I do not wear high heels.”

Norton’s ad shows that remark, along with Buck’s further comment that he’s instead wearing cowboy boots that “have real bull (expletive) on ’em.” Buck’s home county is known for its sprawling, stinky cattle feedlots.

A voiceover says Buck “would fit right in” in Washington.

Colorado’s Republican primary has taken a turn for the nasty in recent weeks, though Buck and Norton kept it cool during a morning forum Thursday.
