I don't AZ could ever bid for the Olympics. The summers are just too hot and our winters don't provide enough snow. We're getting light rail but we're paying for it ourselves. Sen McCain does have a legitimate beef.

I agree, McCain proably does have a legitimate gripe about the federal government paying for light rail early for Utah, OTOH, early TRAX for Utah was granted, realizing it was for the Olympics, and the Olympics weren't just for Utahns, that they were for all Americans. McCain should have spoken out back then at allocation time, and he didn't, only after the fact a couple of years ago.
