*889BRIGHT, Circuit Judge.
I concur in the determination that the district court did not err in refusing to downwardly depart from the guidelines. I dissent from the affirmance of Diaz-Diaz’s sentence as it relates to the sentencing enhancements. Diaz-Diaz has requested to submit a supplemental brief in light of the constitutional concerns raised by the Supreme Court’s recent holding in Blakely v. Washington, 542 U.S. -, 124 S.Ct. 2531, 159 L.Ed.2d 403 (2004). I would vacate Diaz-Diaz’s sentence and remand for further consideration by the district court.
