Date: August 5th, 2012 11:43 PM Author: aquamarine lay because their proposals fail to answer very basic questions about simple things
ie, "okay, we see that this event will require transportation from new jersey into manhattan, but with the proposed security arrangements, how will everyone be able to get there on time?"

also, the us has hosted both summer and winter a lot in the last few decades, so its hard to justify giving another bid, especially if its not awesome or if there are decent bids on the table. |
