Well, He Did Agree To Hotel Rooms

A DNC source called the just completed sit-down between the Florida Delegation and Chairman Howard Dean a "good, collabortive meeting." Most important tidbit: there will be hotel rooms for the Florida delegation at the convention.

But, will they be in the (303) area code?

Full joint statement available after the jump.

Washington, DC - After a joint meeting today among Democratic National Committee Chairman Howard Dean, Florida Democratic Chairwoman Karen L. Thurman and the Florida Congressional Delegation, the participants issued this joint statement:

"We are all committed to doing everything we can to ensure that a Florida delegation is seated in Denver. We all agree that whatever the solution, it must have the support of both campaigns. While there may be differences of opinion in how we get there, we are all committed to ensuring that Florida's delegation is seated in Denver. We're committed to working with both campaigns to reach a solution as soon as realistically possible. We are also laying the groundwork to ensure we win in Florida in November and spent time here today talking about how to do just that. We will continue to work towards a solution to ensure delegates are seated and logistics are in place for a Florida delegation in Denver."

Why is no one asking where Clinton's tax records are?

Wolfson promised them within the week ....

That was more than a week ago.

Why the free pass?

Remember, Ho-ho (or rather the DNCC) is on the hook to fill those rooms with paying customers.

Well, when I saw the headline, I thought the story was about Sen. Debbie Stabenow's husband. Fifteen minutes in the Residence Inn, indeed.

Denver also has a 720 area code . . .
