Republican John Suthers has been in the news on issues ranging from guns to gay marriage during his last year as attorney general, underscoring the importance of an office often overshadowed in Colorado politics.

Attorney general has a range of duties, from enforcing consumer-protection laws to working with the state's 22 district attorneys to serving as the chief legal counsel to the governor and branches of state government.

That's why Democrat Don Quick and Republican Cynthia Coffman argue over being the best candidate for the job and why they each have serious concerns about their opponent. Also running is Libertarian David K. Williams.

Quick said Coffman wants to further a conservative agenda, not a Colorado agenda. His campaign slogan is "a prosecutor, not a politician." Coffman said Quick is not interested in defending all laws, but in picking his own "winners and losers."

Quick served as the chief deputy under Democratic Attorney General Ken Salazar and was elected to two terms as Adams County district attorney.

"I don't have a political agenda. I don't have any Democratic political agenda. I spent three out of my last four years prosecuting corruption in Adams County that involved ... Democrats," Quick said. "I've testified against bills that were sponsored by Democrats when I didn't think they were in the best interest of public safety."

Coffman, he said, announced during her speech to the Republican state assembly in April that she would be ready to band together with other GOP attorneys general to sue the federal government over a variety of issues, including the Second and 10th amendments.

"That's how she sees the job, as a political agenda," Quick said.
