When we heard the news that President Obama was going to Copenhagen after all, we asked @redeyechicago followers if they thought it would help. Here are some of the responses. Go for the gold every day with RedEye on Twitter at twitter.com/redeyechicago and on Facebook at tr.im/redeyechicago.

I think Obama’s visit might’ve sealed the victory for Chicago. Hopefully the games mean good things for the city.
@poet_teresa
hmmmmm i don’t think it will help our chances at all.
@badbadleroyb
They wanted him, they got it……Chicago prepare for 2016…we are so screwed
@vaughnchicago
I wonder if mob mayhem in the streets will cost us Olympic votes?
@ryankiefer
yes, definitely. Obama is fairly well-liked overseas.
@bbulman
Rio is the sentimental favorite, but Obama may swing a few committee member votes our way, maybe enough to win
