Minneapolis/St. Paul update

WE'VE MOVED! Democratic Convention Watch is now at http://www.DemocraticConventionWatch.com

Jeremy Hanson, Communications Director for Minneapolis Mayor Rybak, emails to say that the DNC has not made a decision concerning the three potential venues for the 2008 Democratic Convention: Xcel Center, Target Center, and the Metrodome.

I didn't imply otherwise in my post last week. All I reported was the DNC may be focusing on the Xcel Center among the three venues.

Denver

All of the locations we have to select from would be great.

But Denver I think really does top them all for 2008 IMO.

I agree. Denver is not only the best geographically for the convention, it is also the most appealing. If you want cross over appeal, where better than a liberal city in the heart of a purple state in the middle of a red region? Also: I checked out the scoop on Colorado's governor's race: Bill Ritter (D) 44.2%, Bob Beauprez (R) 36%. I'm going for Denver.

Denver hotels aren't unionized. You think that the SEIU is going to let that happen?
