'''Deaniacs' cheer defiant Democratic Party chief''

"Last year, Iowa.

This year, Denver.

If Howard Dean is there, Joel Weierman wants to help.

The Boulder resident, 32 and a self-confessed "die-hard Deaniac," shelled out $100 Thursday to hear the former presidential candidate spell out his vision for leading the Democratic National Committee.

"Thank you," Arapahoe County resident Laure Levin told Dean afterward. "I'm ready to hit the streets again."

"He was great," said Weierman, who admitted he was crushed last year when Dean lost the Iowa primary to John Kerry.

Dean came to Colorado on Thursday for a fundraiser that attracted more than 300 people."-from the story in the Rocky Mountain News.
