Gustav attacked the GOP., I was planning a trip to the convention., not happening now. I would like to see McCain out there in the storm surge in a rain slicker like the weather men do. LOL That would show his dedication to the American People. The question is how will Palin McCain 08 handle Gustav? Good thing Gustav came, news hasnt talked about the Palin trooper scandal at all http://www.veeppeek.com
