Cleveland is in Final 4 to Host the 2012 Democrat Party National Convention

• IggyPride00

  

  Will we see the Greek columns be resurrected in Cleveland Browns Stadium as the humble public servant once again thrills his loyal subjects with soaring rhetoric and empty promises?
  
  Would Ohio Chatters flock to the coronation ceremony in droves to pay their respects?
  
  I hope for the cities sake that Cleveland is selected because it would bring in some much needed revenue. I do think it is quite realistic as well as Ohio will be a battleground this time around as BHO carried it last time but it figures to be much closer next election.
  
  Not sure when the final decision is made but at least so far Cleveland has survived.

  I think it at least makes sense on a conceptual level since much of cuyahoga county and cleveland have been in the tank for the democratic party for a long time.

  The dem's will get an up close look at the destruction their policies wreak ..................... good choice.

  The Cleve's not so bad...and IMO, free trade has hurt this town more than flaming libs; Maybe steel being made by Indian's has made steel cheaper so Americans can build things more efficiently....but they aren't building anything here haha

  It would be a brilliant move. Ohio is on the verge of slipping out of his grasp. Greek Columns at Browns Stadium could go a long way toward getting the unwashed masses fired up about him again.

  Especially if Gore and Clinton hang out a while.

  Could be part of the purchase price for Kucinich's & Boccieri's last minute vote changes

  Talked to a buddy of mine that works for ODP today and he said that Cleveland is the "strong front-runner" right now

  I give the donkeys credit for realizing how important Ohio is....a fact that seems to be lost on Republican leadership, who give only lip service to our state.
• gibby08

  

  Would any of the Dems (or Republicans) here be interested in going?
  
  I am the President of the local Democrat Club and could have access to some pretty good seats...maybe we could have a get-together of sorts?
  
  I for one wouldn't care which party it was...I would make plans on attending

  Doesn't BHO need to shore up Massachusetts first?
• Tiernan

  This is the ONLY time Cleveland will ever be in the Final 4 of anything.

  I'm torn. Since it's close I'll definitely go and boo, but if it's here it will help the Dems and that's no good.
