That was not a repudiation, it was a bitch slap.

Any lefty site will be about how evil “Amerikkka” is, and then have the temerity to actually wonder why Chicago failed so miserably.

It's Glenn Beck's fault.
I'm betting that's the talking point by the end of the day.

It doesn’t MATTER how YOU view it, Axhole.
It matters how WE the VOTERS view it.
No matter how you spin it, Bambi ate the big one on this, and you aren’t fooling anyone.

Obama’s arrogance was plain to see. He is disappointed to find that the world does not believe that it revolves around him.

Is the defeat a sign that Obama's global popularity has begun to wane? Talk about a kick in the pants! Oh the embarrassment. LOL

many of them Chicago natives, with a personal stake in the bid
You bet they had a stake. This cost them millions in graft and real estate speculation. Now what are they going to do with all those slum houses they were going to sell at huge profits?

Did the president falter by making remarks that were emotional and personal, rather than giving specifics about his adopted home town? Is the defeat a sign that Obama's global popularity has begun to wane? Or maybe it's because Chicago perceived as a cesspool of corruption.

Axelrod ... argued that the bid by Madrid was led by a former president of the IOC, who was calling in years' worth of favors
So, the community organizer was outdone by a better community organizer. Poetic justice.

Well, when he went around telling everyone his country was cr*p, I guess they believed him. Who wants to have an Olympics in a cr*p country? What a dweeb.
