Convention moves forward, but Gustav on our minds

The Republicans have no choice but to go ahead with their convention, but they are doing all that they can to help with Hurricane Gustav. As to their schedule in the convention, they are moving forward with caution. You can expect changes. The GOP Flag applauds them for their sensitivity and compassion in this critical time.

Gustav is wreaking havoc in the Gulf States. Luckily, we were prepared this time. Louisiana evacuated millions and mobilized their troops. Mississippi acted similarly. Neigboring states have sent troops and aid.

There is a great amount of politics to discuss, but we will leave that for another day.

For today, let us unite --Democrats and Republicans -- and help our fellow Americans.

When this is over, we can get back to the campaign.
