Can't we at least be *contenders* for America's Favorite City?

Travel and Leisure magazine is adding five cities to the 25 that already compete for the title of America's Favorite Cities. Readers have been invited to vote for which five they will add, among ten choices including Baltimore. Our competition includes crumbling Detroit, frigid Anchorage, and eight others.

You can vote for up to 5 cities. Personally, I'm casting my ballot for Baltimore, Memphis and St. Louis, all of which easily beat cities already on the list like Dallas, Santa Fe, and Phoenix any day (I've been all of 'em).

So please follow the link and make Charm City proud.
