Vote For The Hottest News Babe in Denver

I've only ever flown over Denver but I have friends that work at Boulder Community Hospital so in case anyone is working there is reading this, howdydo. I used to be a ski bum back in my young and stupid phase (OK, I'm still young and stupid) and always wanted to bum it in Colorado. Though Denver may not have the hottest news babes in the country, I have to say, you have the most depth that I've seen so far. I had to leave a couple of worthy candidates off in Susie Wargin and Stacey Donaldson, and I didn't include anyone from ABC7 because they frankly didn't have any hot news babes to match the list. Anyways if you don't see your favorite hottie Denver news babe, feel free to email me at anchorbabes@gmail.com so I can add it.
