That's what the poll on CNN's website, http://edition.cnn.com/ says right now.
Are you surprised?
Where would you have picked for the 2014 Winter Olympics?
Russia 66% 16988
South Korea 34% 8938 |

That's probably just because South Korea is a communist country. |

An excellent outcome.
It is absolutely a healthy sign that South Korean nationalistic propaganda does not have appeal or traction outside of South Korea.
In contrast, the Russian bid was not characterized by over-inflated expectations or ego maniacs; its publicity was limited and carefully targeted.
Sochi barely has a functioning airport and limited hotel facilities and it still defeated the Korean bid. Fantastic. |
