Well, that’s put to rest. Core conservatives have been waiting on Attorney General Cynthia Coffman to explain her position on abortion, an issue that’s been in question since she entered the race for governor in November.

She answered that question on “Wake up! with Randy Corporon” on 710 KNUS on Saturday: She’s pro-life.

As a conservative Republican who represented the state’s case when it sought to withhold money from Planned Parenthood, Coffman create surprise and anxiety among would-be supporters when her campaign in November reportedly told CBS4’s Shaun Boyd that Coffman was pro-choice. That sent radio political talkers such as Corporon, Craig Silverman and Dan Caplis into orbit. Coffman’s spokeswoman at the time told Colorado Politics that Coffman has never said publicly how she feels personally on the wedge issue, but said the candidate would speak about it on the campaign trail.

“I am personally in favor of life,” Coffman said Saturday. “I would choose life.”

She also doesn’t support late-term abortions or public funding for abortions, while she supports parental consent for minors to get abortions, she told Corporon.

“So I’m in favor of all those restrictions on abortion and believe that the only way that we can as a society not have abortion is if we empower women to make different choices,” she told Corporon. “And that’s that’s my philosophy on abortion, so I don’t like it, and I don’t fit in the category of pro-choice.”

I reached out to Coffman’s campaign via email, its preference for campaign questions.

“Cynthia’s detailed on-air comments speak for themselves,” replied spokeswoman Keeley Hanlon, a Washington, D.C., strategist. “She shared an honest and thoughtful explanation of her position on an issue that’s important to many Colorado voters. As many Coloradans understand, her position on this issue is more than just a label.”

I didn’t wake up and tune in with Corporon Saturday morning to hear the broadcast live, but the state Democratic party didn’t miss it, flagging reporters’ attention to the interview Tuesday.

“We’ve said it before and we’ll say it again: There’s simply no room for moderates in today’s GOP,” Colorado Democratic Party spokesman Eric Walker said in an email to reporters. “The party has moved so far to the extreme right that whoever makes it out of the GOP’s nasty gubernatorial primary will simply be too right-wing for Colorado.”
