Denver 2004 November Election
Mike Miles gets some press coverage from the Denver Post [December 28, 2003, "Unsung Dem could strike chord"]. Miles is challenging Ben Nighthorse Campbell for his Senate seat. He has a large mountain yet to climb. Even the state democratic party is lukewarm to his candidacy right now. It would be unusual for Colorado voters to elect a senator that had not held office before. Here's the link to Mr. Miles' website.
Not much activity there yet. I can't find a link for an e-mail list. Where is your weblog Mr. Miles? Send me an e-mail at, jworr@operamail.com, and I'll help you get started. No charge. In fact I'll help any candidate in the 2004 election. I'm non-partisan in this offer, I just want y'all to start writing to the people, in your own voice. Mr. Miles' website does give you many opportunities to contribute.
Ben Nighthorse Campbell's supporters have taken note of the success of meetups. They have the first Campbell meetup set for January 21st.

2003 Denver Mayoral Transition
Here's and in-depth piece on the type of people that Mayor Hickenlooper is recruiting to transform city government, from the Denver Post [December 28, 2003, "Challenging the system at city hall"]. From the article, "Hickenlooper, the parking-meter feeder who offered a fresh perspective on Denver government, has been reaching outside Denver political circles to hire a team of practical risk-takers and accountability fanatics. His team is composed mostly of young, well-educated urban professionals who bring with them impressive resumes."
