Giuliani and Romney to crash Democrats' Denver party
Source: Reuters

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - When Democrats gather in Denver next week to nominate Barack Obama for president, they'll be joined by such uninvited guests as Republicans Rudy Giuliani and Mitt Romney.

The two former presidential candidates will be among two dozen or so Republicans in the city hoping to get their party's message out during a week dominated by Democratic festivities.

Their slogan? "Not Ready '08: A Mile High and an Inch Deep," a play on the nickname for the high-altitude city in the western United States.

1. Maybe they'll get arrested by the Denver PD
And get to spend a few hours in the holding pen/warehouse that's being prepared for protesters?

One could only hope.

3. Karl Rove cannot stand it when the Democrats get time alone to convey their message.
Reminds me of the Paul Wellstone funeral and how "outraged" the GOP was it was a partisan event.

7. Welcome to Colorado, Rudy....
... remember how 'ready' he was on 9-11-01?

Ready to appear in front of every camera, and save only his own sorry ass.

We ain't forgotten you, Rudy. And we'll be busy hounding you and Mittens all week....

16. Does the GOP stand for anything at all but spite?
Does the leadership do anything but try to tear down any opponents and with them the entire country?

19. that's what I was thinking - and it's just dumb, too
isn't it supposed to be a mile wide and an inch deep?

somebody probably got paid a pretty penny to come up with this idea, too

That money could be going towards property tax relief...
