Denver comments on New Orleans
WE’VE MOVED! Democratic Convention Watch is now at http://www.DemocraticConventionWatch.com
Dan Slater, Vice-Chair of the Denver 2008 Host Committee, is very happy that a potential contender is gone:
This is obviously great news for Denver’s ongoing bid. New Orleans’ exit leaves Denver, New York City, and Minneapolis – St. Paul as the only remaining finalists for the 2008 Convention (and both New York and Minneapolis – St. Paul are also bidding for the Republican Convention). (Caveat: for those of you who are unaware, I serve as the Vice-Chair of the Denver 2008 Host Committee.) The Denver 2008 Host Committee is continuing to work hard to raise the money and exceed the expectations of the DNC. Expect to continue to hear good news about our bid in the next few weeks…
I’m very happier than Dan is, I think. Go Denver!
Minneapolis still has a good chance! Don’t count them out of it yet.
Denver!
