Well his comments + the recession. The convention business didn't go
elsewhere. They just didn't go. LV locals went ape-shit about his comments
and he retracted them. As the economy has improved so has the convention
business. I think the economy had much more to do than his comments.

Uh, the Jack Welch bit, did you actually read it? Here's a quote:
"Soon after he came into office, Obama slammed companies that
benefitted from taxpayer money for taking corporate trips to Las
Vegas.
Businesspeople said tourism in Nevada took a hit partly because
companies decided to cancel trip
"If we lost 5 million jobs in 2009, then gained 1.1 million since, we're
still way behind."
Point of order: How many of those jobs were census jobs?

We lost 5 million jobs in the last two years.
