Spoke to Bill. So it turns out that NYC did not get the Olympics after all. Apparently there is some UN committee or something that makes the actual decision and that NYC is just the US nomination, to compete against our plucky allies in Britain(London), and Mpwthe Bingobongoland
Which pretty much settles it for Mpwthe since W seems to have everyone in the world apart from our plucky allies in Britain looking for any excuse to stick one in our eye. Even Blair will have to have his guy vote for London, no matter what.
Bill points out that on top of all that the Olympic committee may well harbor a grudge after we bribed them all right royally to get the Winter Olympics out in Mormon country then put their bigwigs on trial in the Senate, blaming them for accepting our bribes.
