I'd say that considering the amount of time that The Hick has been spending on fund raising for Denver '08 (or Re-create '68 – maybe the radical left should chip in for expenses considering that they obviously intend to make Denverites spend lots of tax money defending themselves against a full-on leftist urban assault) that the DNCC has gotten more than their fair share of Denver's resources already.

If these spoiled brats can't cope with the competition posed by a concert at Red Rocks and a couple of arts festivals that should count as draws for the Democratic convention, not competition, it says something very important about what the Democratic Party has to offer America – that it's not much, in the opinion of the people (who the DNCC apparently fears will be distracted from the formalistic anointing of yet another place holder as their Presidential candidate by some good music, or mediocre films. Not that this isn't a justified fear. Who voluntarily tunes in to convention coverage any more?).

We could get another mockumentary (like Jed Weintrob's “The F Word”) from Denver '08 if the left wing media were self-honest enough to show THEIR political conventions without editing. No chance of that, though.
