I'm pulling for Rio, but wouldn't be deceived if Prague, Madrid, or Chicago got them.

I'm neutral on Doha, but I staunchly oppose Baku.

It does matter... given their current track record, they will probably pick Pyongyang.

No, they'd pick Baku to keep in line with their track record of holding them in great democracies.

After thinking, I change my vote to Doha.

The Summer Olympics were held in September-October in Sydney. I imagine they could deal with them being in May in Doha.

Even May is quite hot in Doha, plus there is the humidity.

I hope it comes back to Montreal Smiley so we can show off our great Olympic wastebasket again. And maybe, if they're lucky, the roof won't collapse on them Smiley.
