2 GOP CONVENTION NIGHTS 'ARE DEFINITELY IN JEOPARDY'




Now, it would really be bad of me to experience any glee/schadenfreude from this, so allow me to simply convey my wish for the safety of the citizens of Tampa (and a very rapid departure of ALL their unwelcome "visitors&quot


Forecasters say Tropical Storm Isaac is moving westward across the Atlantic on a track that could possibly take it toward Florida, where the Republican National Convention will be held next week.

3. Just think what Pat Robertson would say...

...if this was happening during the Dem convention.

Between this hurricane and the Akin scandal, it would appear any "devine intervention" in this election is to the Dems' benefit.

4. As bad as things have been for them the past weeks, it actually may be a blessing in disguise.

Heaven knows what those Paulites, teabaggers, and Akin-supporting fundies might pull in PRIME TIME.

5. I really hope it does miss Tampa, for a couple of reasons

First of all, I want it to go around Florida, into the Gulf, head into Texas and come up here into Missouri as some much needed rain.

Second of all, since this is looking more and more like it is going to hit Tampa, the 'Pugs will pull out and go to their back up plan. All those strippers, hookers, etc. etc. will be down in Tampa, and we won't have the fun of watching the scandals roll out of Tampa by the carload.

6. Jeff Masters on wunderground.com says it's still fighting with the dry air that's north

7. Would it be bad of me to wish that the Tampa folks are spared, and the hurricane hits ...

the RNC convention. and decides to back it up and hit it some more...

Then back it up... and hit it again, then leave as a tropical depression going out to the west....

8. Rethuglicans, ignorant as they are, will blame Tampa for the bad weather.

They always follow the path of least resistance to find the most suitable whipping boy.
