My opinion is that this is a very bad idea.  Wherever that convention goes, there will be massive civil unrest and probably riots.  The supposed "$100 million" shot in the arm for the local economy will be completely offset by the disruption, the trash, the destruction, cost of security, and numerous other problems and costs it would bring to the city.

This is the GOP convention Marty, not the Dems.  No Occupy Wall Street People here.
