Republican Convention!
The Republican Convention starts Tuesday!
Starting Tuesday in Minneapolis, MN the Republicans are coming together to nominate John McCain for President and head into the November 4 elections.
There will be several days of speeches, bands, parties, and good times on national television. It’s a lot of free press for the Republican Party. The RNC Schedule
However, with Hurricane Gustav hitting the Gulf Coast, the John McCain and the Republican Party have decided to post-pone the Convention for a day (to Tuesday). The NY Times notes that the storm has serious risks and possible rewards for the Republican Party. Check it out!
Hopefully, for the Republicans, there will be a ‘bounce’ after the convention. The Dems didn’t get the bounce they wanted. With Sarah Palin as John McCain’s running mate, there will be plenty to talk about!
What do you think? Will Hurricane Gustav help or hurt the Republican Party? Will Sarah Palin give John McCain the ‘bump’ that the Republicans need to pass Obama up?
