DENVER - Colorado Republicans today welcomed news that President Obama will campaign for Senator Michael Bennet in February and offered to host a special reunion event.

"One year ago next month, President Obama signed the failed 'stimulus' bill into law right here in Denver surrounded by Governor Ritter, Mayor Hickenlooper and Senator Bennet," said Colorado Republican Chairman Dick Wadhams.  "Since then, unemployment has gone up to 10 percent and hundreds of thousands of people have lost their jobs while the national debt has skyrocketed."

"Let's get the whole gang together again to properly recognize their 'stimulus' inspired 10 percent unemployment rate while the President is here campaigning for our accidental senator, Michael Bennet, and Mayor Hickenritter," Wadhams said.  "We'd be happy to host this special reunion."
