But if it had been the Dhimicrat Convention, now THAT would have been something to get excited about.
Cleveland is not on my bucket list of places to go.
This is satire right.
Cuyahoga County Ohio is a Liberal county... but I am sure they won’t have any compunction about cashing RNC checks.
and the article doesn’t even mention the anarchists and attendant costs of that gaggle.
Not new. The GOP nominated Coolidge and Landon in 1924 and 1936, respectively, in Cleveland. So in 2016, it will have been 80 years since the convention was held in Cleveland.
Since I am not from Ohio, I wouldn’t know. Are you?
It is worth a 24-hour stopover though if you are in northern OH.
With the frenzy of LeBron (promote ACA at Obama’s request) going back to Cleveland this ought to be interesting.
Perhaps blubbering Boehner can kiss both rings.
Yes, I live in Ohio.
It is THE most Democrat county in Ohio.
Why do republicans insist on spending their money in democrat strongholds?

They suffer from the delusion that they can somehow defeat Santa Claus by buying a few trinkets.
The optimist in me tells me that since Ohio is perhaps THE most intense Battleground state, and Cuyahoga County is THE most fraud-ridden election site in Ohio, that having the place crawl with Republican operatives might mitigate that fraud.
Alas, with what is going on in Mississippi, I fear the Republican presence in Cleveland will only enhance the fraud.
Fact is that it is a battle ground but Ohio is also the Mother of Presidents.
She’s an old Republic and the Mother of Presidents
I guess the GOP settled on Cleveland because they couldn’t find a landfill that would take them and went for the next best thing.
The Democrat strongholds are the cities. Cities are where convention centers and the associated hotels and amenities are located.
How could any city be proud that a bunch of corrupt politicians will be visiting for a week, throwing around their ill-gotten gains?
The author has a very solid point. All things considered, it’s possible hosting a convention has more minuses than pluses.
