Glamorous Cities in Race to Host Olympics
Don't know WHY I'm so interested in this. Maybe because I'm still pissed about Beijing.
The complete list of candidates:
Havana - beautiful but is there a Castro factor
Istanbul - would be first games in Islamic world
Leipzig - would be third German host city
London - would be three time host
Madrid - so soon after Barcelona?
Moscow - can they handle it? Would be first "real" games after `80 boycott
New York - sentimental favorite in post 9/11 era
Paris - supposedly the frontrunner; would be three time host
Rio de Janeiro - never been a Games in South America (or Africa)
