I'm sitting here, maybe 15 ft. from Gov. Owens and future Senator Pete Coors. Pete is "stoked," and looks remarkably well for a guy who's been working nonstop for, what 96 hours already?
Honestly, Coors looks like he really, honestly appreciates the efforts of the volunteers. It's kind of like the NCAA Tournament, where they say, "nobody's a freshman." He's been hardened a little by the campaign, but is very much a political amateur.
