Poll question: Should the Democrats Have Had THEIR Convention In New York City?
Should the Democrats have had their Convention in New York City?

I just feel like it was a missed opportunity to let the Republicans exploit the overwhelmingly Democratic city of New York for their political gain instead of Democrats using it to their advantage.

And see what the residents say about it.

4. No I think picking Boston was the best choice
Because they too could have been accused of exploiting NYC simply by even breathing mention of 9-11.

Picking Boston did many things, it's a liberal city (or at least a Democrat state gimmie that much at least) and it gave a sort of classic American feel to it I think and a few of the speakers "exploited" the chance to talk about America's great history on the very soil it was largely founded on.

5. No, Florida is where
the Democrats should have had it to send a message that we will NEVER forget how they stole the election in FL and we will fight to make sure we are never cheated again. :mad:
