With the expansion of the convention center and all the additional hotels in the area it is certainly large enough to house the National. While I have never been to a National and would like to go, I am not sure how size is even an issue in this case. I would love to see it in Baltimore.

I could be tempted to go...

I would definitely go. I went to last year's National in Cleveland and it was housed in a nice facility, but isolated out near the airport. Bo Jackson was several hours late for his scheduled signing and, even with all of the wonderful items and dealers (I checked out every booth there) I eventually ran out of things to do before Bo arrived. The great thing about the Baltimore Convention Center is that when you need to kill time between signings or just want a break, the Inner Harbor is just steps away. I went to the MAB Celebrity Services/Ironclad event at the Convention Center in January 2007 and I've gotta tell you the crabcake at Phillips was much better than the hot dog at the concession stand. Plus, for those coming from outside of the area, the Light Rail connects to BWI and there is a stop across the street from the Convention Center, not to mention there are tons of hotels within a block or two and Camden Yards is across the street.

I'd love to see it in Baltimore. It's pretty easy to get into and out of Baltimore by car, plane and rail. And it's located within a day's driving from Cleveland and most big cities up and down the coast.
