With London 2012, I can't see Prague or Madrid getting it in 2016 unless none of the other candidates are suitable.

Baku has no chance for a multiplicity of reasons.

I doubt Tokyo will get it.

Chicago will get it if nether Rio nor Doha prove suitable.

I think the IOC will want to wait and see how Brazil handles the 2014 World Cup first.

Doha has the inside track.  Money won't be a problem and the IOC likes to think that sports can somehow solve political problems.



As for what I think would be the best venue, probably Madrid, but as I said, no way it gets it.
