the DNC, or conventions in general, are not held in "swing" areas to pump up votes there? Such as in Cleveland, Miami, Philadephia/PGH, St. Louis, etc.?

1. Afraid if the voters in those states saw first hand (not filtered by TV)
what kinds of asses they are at these parties, they would lose that state for sure!

2. i think the nyc thing kinda backlashed
looking at msnbc with all the Mission Not Accomplished signs and protestors galore chanting to Trent Lott..

having them in a swing state might help a candidate
