It's countdown to "Decision 2012". We can see why Bloomberg decided to play Cinderella to Karl Rove's prince of darkness [1]. Getting Condi "freudian slip" [2] Rice is like getting Shrub himself to partake of the festivities. The Bloomster knows how to play nice.
If you are a democrat, make a point to make a note of this --and RSVP if you are going to attend the festivities.
Heh

[via SI.com - More Sports - Condi Rice to help promote NYC Olympic bid - Saturday June 25, 2005 1:11AM [4]]:
WASHINGTON -- Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice is offering herself as a personal ambassador for New York City's bid to host the 2012 Olympics.
Rice will appear with New York Gov. George Pataki and New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg at a rally on the steps of City Hall Tuesday. It is a send-off rally for New York's emissaries to the International Olympic Committee, which is to choose a host city July 6 at a meeting in Singapore.
BTW, is it me or are we seeing a rash of high-profile Repugs visiting the city? Mehlman, Rove and now Rice? What's up with that?
