Hillary Clinton sure thinks so. Have any right-wingers said anything about this? This seems like maniac pandering to me. Here's the link: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/theblog/archive/danielle-crittenden/new-yorkas-failed-olymp_3725.htmlIt's shit like this that makes me dislike this woman.

Her spokesman did not really just announce her as a candidate in 2012.

6. Backlash From U.S. Unpopularity |
|
NY didn't have a chance. With the current state of world opinion there's simply no way any U.S. city could have garnered the support necessary. I say thank Bush for the loss - he's making us into a pariah.

I'd say it was the fact that Atlanta was a corporate whore-out of the highest order that also had a series of bombings that really makes people not want another American games.
And the fact that we simply couldn't stand two weeks of that moronic "U-S-A U-S-A" shit without packing the garbage can full of fertiliser and sugar and heading over to the Baghdad - Airport road.

It was pathetic last year in Athens with the non-existant crowds at many games.
