The song is a true testament to Colorado, and John Denver (the auther and performer) was a solid Democrat!

Things have gotten better, in that in 2004 the selection committee had 40 people, so 40 people to wine and dine. This year, I think it's more symbolic, just creating good-will for a city.Matthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02126730290750804530noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18747118.post-1144958164327771992006-04-13T15:56:00.000-04:002006-04-13T15:56:00.000-04:00Never Vegas... never!On a different note, how comm...Never Vegas... never!<BR/><BR/>On a different note, how common is this sort of thing? How common are the receptions and sending teams of people, calling DNC members, etc? Or is this showing the party believing that they have a voice again?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18747118.post-1144954701368885852006-04-13T14:58:00.000-04:002006-04-13T14:58:00.000-04:00I'd prefer "Viva Las Vegas."I'd prefer "Viva Las Vegas."Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18747118.post-1144953706885541902006-04-13T14:41:00.000-04:002006-04-13T14:41:00.000-04:00Go Denver!

I think the perfect song to play at the 2008 DNC, to mark the convention and the party moving West, would be John Denver's original 1972 recording of the folk-rock classic (and Colorado un-official anthem) "Rocky Mountain High"! Come on everybody, DNC belongs in Denver for 2008! The Centennial State is bringing home it's Democratic Centennial!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
