Big Guns Support New York

The big guns are coming out in support of New York to host the 2012 Olympics.

US Secretary of State Colin Powell has reportedly asked his foreign minister colleagues to back New York's bid.

He has also recorded a videotape on behalf of the bid, which will make the same case. He describes the city as "a place where you can come and have a good time", that would make a "great" host for the Games.
