Wikipedia is not a crystal ball. This article is an extreme example of crystal-ballery, so absurd that it might even qualify for speedy deletion (a different article has been speedied once). However, I think it's important that it be deleted through process and continue to be deleted until there is notable and verifiable information available about the Convention (i.e. a location is chosen), which won't happen for a few years probably.

• Delete per nom. It's too early to happen. Bigtop 20:11, 11 January 2007 (UTC)
• Delete per crystal ball et al. The Rambling Man 20:28, 11 January 2007 (UTC)
• Delete Crystal ball gazing, lack of sources, and facetious tone of article all indicate it is not yet time for this article. Edison 20:44, 11 January 2007 (UTC)
• Delete if not for the rant therein, then at least kill it until a site has been picked. Caknuck 21:27, 11 January 2007 (UTC)
• Delete obviously. Where I come from this sort of thing is known as "getting your retaliation in first". There will be an article about this Convention at some point but let's wait until something is known about it. Sam Blacketer 21:32, 11 January 2007 (UTC)
• Delete as crystal ball. Pastordavid 22:43, 11 January 2007 (UTC)
• Delete, I couldn't even find any real information on cities that may want to bid. Even if there are real potential sources, this article is pointless nonsense as written. --Dhartung | Talk 23:45, 11 January 2007 (UTC)
• Delete until we know something about it not in the "Democratic National Convention" article. 1.618033989 00:49, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

• Delete per nom. Wow, 2008 elections aren't here, and here we are thinking about the elections after that. What's next, the 2016 Convention article?   •The RSJ•   Talk | Sign Here 01:56, 12 January 2007 (UTC)
• Speedy Delete as patent nonsense, per WP:CSD#G1. This is no crystal ball, only the title implies that. The article itself is blather. I'm tagging it with a speedy. — coelacan talk — 02:39, 12 January 2007 (UTC)
