2008 Convention Update


Minneapolis is strongly pushing for the Democratic National Convention in '08. Minneapolis has put up a new website promoting the idea. The conventional wisdom right now is that Denver and Minneapolis are the two leading candidates to be host. The cities still in the hunt: Denver, Dallas, Detroit, Las Vegas, Minneapolis, New Orleans and New York.

Here's a great blog keeping track on the latest developments in the Convention race.

    Las Vegas? That should play real well with values voters. I like Minneapolis as a pick, it would be good to get back to the midwest (Chicago 1996) after hitting both coasts in 2000 (LA and Boston 2004). New Orleans would be awesome, a nice little reminder like the GOP in New York in 2004.

    Thanks for the link to the convention blog. I think Minneapolis has its work cut out for it, but we'll know more when the proposals come out in a couple of weeks.
