RIO, RIO, RIO. Let's not forget the article on sex and performance. Let's see. Giselle Budgen (spelling?) and many similar Brazilian beauties or Michelle Obama/Oprah. HMMMMM. Tough call for the male athletes.

[GOP Poet]

Oh great I’ll be out running soon. :-(. RIO, RIO, RIO!!

[KarlInOhio]

Any bets on which city will win? I think it is between Rio and Chicago. I don't see Tokyo getting it only two Olympics after Beijing... too much Asia, too quickly. Similarly, I don't expect Madrid to get it since Barcelona already had it (although it would be 24 years apart). I'm betting on Rio, even though Obama Himself showed up.

[irishjuggler]

Go, Rio, Madrid and Tokyo!!!

[GOP Poet]

Allow me to elaborate. LOL. I meant the article on sex and improved athletic performance. My husband was the one that reminded me of that and it cracked me up regarding the potential selection of RIo versus Chicago. Can't take credit.

[GOP Poet]

if zero wasn’t such a grand thug and manipulator I would bet on RIO and I still am. Screw Bambi and his ugly, arrogant ilk.

[cartervt2k]

For the sake of safety of the international community, I hope it’s not Chicago.

[Non-Sequitur]

It’ll probably be Rio. It won’t be Madrid because the 2012 games are in London, and it won’t be Tokyo because Asia just had the 2008 games. It’s the America’s turn but South America has never hosted an Olympics and the committee will say that they’re due.

[fatima]

Vote is closed.How long will this take.

[savedbygrace]

As I post this reply, it’s 5:24pm in Copenhagen. Go figure.

[johnnyd0422]

They might need to go through several rounds.

[johnnyd0422]

Chicago gained the LEAST amount of votes and will not participate in the next round.

[KarlInOhio]

About an hour. I predict Rio unless ACORN registered a bunch of extra IOC voters or Mayor Daley is doing the counting.

[fatima]

Chicago no.Least amount of votes-Ha

[savedbygrace]

Chicago is out of it.

[evets]

[Sgt_Schultze]

I’m betting Zero showed up because he has been given a heads-up that it will be Chicago. The empty suit needs to be seen as accomplishing something other than winning an election. Today’s announcement will give him the ability to claim persuasiveness. He wouldn’t be showing up to mourn a loss.

[concerned about politics]

YAY! I think I just heard Chicago has been eliminated?

[Lockbar]

LOL CHICAGO OUT!!!! And I’m from CHICAGO!!!!! LOL

[OldDeckHand]

"Chicago gained the LEAST amount of votes and will not participate in the next round."

HaHa - It couldn't have happened to a better guy. Eat it Orca!

[blf1776]

WLS is going crazy, poor Chicago.

[nufsed]

I always hope that the US will get the games, despite who our president is. He may not be president at the time. Even though Chicago is Chicago, it's not the only corrupt place to have the Olympics. Mexico for example.

All that being said, Brazil is in the middle of a revival and SA has never had the games.

CHICAGO ELIMINATED IN THE FIRST ROUND!

[Red_Devil 232]

FNC reporting ChiTown eliminated! WoooooooHooooooo!

[fatima]

:)Obama sure convinced them/NOT-hehehehehehehehe

[concerned about politics]

Oh oh. The Olympic committee is “racist”. I can hear it all now.

[johnnyd0422]

96 votes, 1 abstention, valid ballots 95.

The city of Tokyo gained the LEAST amount of votes and will not participate in the next round.

[evets]

[irishjuggler]

Hip, hip hooray! No Obamalympics!!!

[GOP Poet]

YES! Chicago is out!!!!!!!! Bambi is such a loser. RIO all the way!

[Sgt_Schultze]

I guess I had a bad bet. It must have been racism that took down the first black president’s choice.

[agere_contra]

AWESOME!!!!

In yer face Bambo!

[savedbygrace]

Rio vs Madrid for the final round of voting.

[fatima]

What’s WLS?

[Sgt_Schultze]

It’s racism.

[Redleg Duke]

Going into the final round, Rio vs Madrid. Chicago was eliminated in the first round!

[savedbygrace]

Where’s the graphic of the yellow guy saying, “Ha, ha!”

[GraceG]

Shouldn’t Obama be happy and please as punch, besides he like the rest of the world more than the USA. But he won’t be able to give sweet deals to the likes of Rezko and his ilk.

The internal conundrums must be tearing him up inside.... Poor Obama, he now has internal conflict.....

[nufsed]

We were in Bejing 6 months before the Olympics. Looks like I’ll be going to Rio.

[jwparkerjr]

I think he went because in his narcissistic mind he could not imagine his pitch not getting the job done.

He is hearing, and experiencing, “no” for the first time in his life. Let’s hope it’s just the beginning of his education on life in the real world.

[Non-Sequitur]

I think they’ll be a close second to Rio. Foreigners love to suck up to Obama but I still think Rio will win. Madrid and Tokyo aren’t anywhere in the picture.

[KarlInOhio]

What’s WLS?

Talk radio station in Chicago. 890 AM.

[BigCinBigD]

Schadenfreude...

[nufsed]

Too recent in Spain. Rio has to get the nod.

[ThePatriotsFlag]

Tokyo is out, now its between Madrid and Rio.

[johnnyd0422]

The election is over, the announcement will be at 11:30 am CT.

[Sgt_Schultze]

Maybe the rest of the world sees the naked emperor too.

[petitfour]

When do the Chicago riots begin????????

[agere_contra]

I have to say I really, really thought that Bambo had greased the wheels. No way would he duck out on Afghanistan, duck out on the economy and duck out of the Presidency unless he had this sewn up.

Kudos to the IOC, things have changed since Atlanta.

And sucks to the Chicago Mob.
