addressing the positive, problem-solving vision for the country
offered by moderate Western Democrats. Gov. Ritter also will discuss
Colorado's New Energy Economy and the need for a new direction to move

and as the host governor for the 2008 Democratic National Convention,"

I think the can-do spirit we embody here in Colorado speaks to what
people around the country want from their leaders and from the next
President of the United States."
