As an NYC 2012 supporter, I say, what was it going to take. What was going to be enough. I am looking forward to 2016, not so much for 2012. I will still be bitter and will probably post comparative weather for those 16 days. I do not think the IOC will be aware of just how much they changed the olympic movement once they get to 2014 & 2016. The elephant in the room is where these two votes (2012 & 2016) an anywhere but there.
