CO should be in the bag (none / 0)
I'm not sure about NV.  NM is iffy, pretty rural for the most part, but has trended blue.

CO has really skewed blue big time in the last four years.  The dems swept into the state house, state senate, and governor's seat in 2006.  The only thing I can see that would keep CO from voting dem is if there is trouble from the convention.  And I'm not talking about delegate trouble or a brokered convention.  I am worried that if the convention causes a huge hassle for everyone that lives here, they will be pissed at the dems and take it out on them at the voting booth.  I'm not sure how real that fear is, and I wonder if anyone knows if that type of response has happened in previous years.  I know I am not looking forward to the convention and getting around the city that week.  Of course, it won't keep me from voting Democrat, but I am not on the fence.

I think (none / 0)
Having the convention in a state makes it MORE likely that party will win the state.  Not less.
Plus the inconvenienced will be Denveronianites (or something) and they will vote Dem anyway.
