More on Denver’s party
WE’VE MOVED! Democratic Convention Watch is now at http://www.DemocraticConventionWatch.com
Dan Slater writes up Denver’s reception to promote their bid to host the 2008 Democratic Convention:
Last night here in New Orleans was a great night to be a Colorado Democrat. The Denver 2008 Host Committee sponsored a great reception here at the Sheraton in New Orleans for DNC Members.
Attendance was phenomenal at the standing-room only event. DNC Members from across the country attended — and were talking about it all day today. Denver was well-represented; both current Mayor John Hickenlooper and former Mayor Wellington Webb joined together to present a great face to the group about why Denver should be the site for the 2008 Democratic National Convention.
…
Delegates also enjoyed the nice gift bags from the Denver 2008 folks. Included in the bags were a wooden box of chocolates with the Denver 08 logo, a book by John Fielder, a box of teas from Celestial Seasonings, a Denver lapel pin, a coupon for a free burrito at Chipotle, and several other items.
As we prepare to leave New Orleans, I think Denver has gone a long way to ensuring that we’re the top of the list for the National Convention. Folks are now beginning to understand: this could really happen!
See DemNotes for some pictures from the party.
