I wouldn't wish the curse of the Olympics on any city I've lived in and have significant ties to, so that rules out both Dallas and Washington, for me.

Seriously, hosting the Olympics is one of the worst curses a city can bring on itself.

very true, which is why I don't want Tulsa.

For the Winter Games, what about Pittsburgh or Buffalo?  With Pittsburgh, they can use the Appalachians for the Skiing events.

Just throwing out possibilities.

Ugh, none of these - Detroit only.

Oh I suppose New Orleans is depressed enough to need a boost.  Should be paid for entirely with fiat currency though.

Why Detroit? You want to see an opening ceremony about Chevy cars on Mount Rushmore?

mount rushmore is in south dakota
