The Plain Dealer continues to advocate a convention center

There is now widespread public awareness that this area's hospitality industry, which employs tens of thousands of Greater Clevelanders, is extremely fragile, at least in part because the city's main convention hall is an uncompetitive, 80-year-old antique. The need to find development catalysts for downtown, as well as for the city's neighborhoods and for suburban communities, has been established.

Hrm. Not so sure about that. I mean with all the great catalysts like the new baseball and football stadiums, haven't we become awash in so many jobs and economic side-effects that we're just fine now? No? Ah The Dealer continues the Fair and Balanced coverage with an attack on the mayor for abandoning the project. See, the problem isn't that the case hasn't been made for the project, in fact we shouldn't be asking questions about it at all.

Update: 10:57 PM
Bill Callahan agrees.
