Obama was pushing to have this year's olympics in Chicago. At least we would have had a home field advantage in the shooting events.

Yep, remember Obama’s embarrassing trip to Copenhagen to lobby for the Olympics.

And when the voting started, Chicago was the first city eliminated as the rounds of voting proceeded.

I still remember how flummoxed the news readers were on cable news that day. They were stunned, absolutely stunned, that Chicago could be eliminated so quickly, after Obama put himself out there personally to lobby for the games.
