Romney is afraid to be Nominated on TV

Hurricane Isaac may be used as a pretext to take shelter from hurricane Ron Paul.

They are talking about moving Romney's nomination from Wednesday to Monday (no national network TV) to avoid the risk of rogue Paul delegates making it a memorable night.

But they would use the hurricane as a pretext for the move... which makes less sense the longer you think about it, considering that Isaac will be well past Tampa by Wednesday night, as opposed to on the verge of rolling in on Monday night.

We've already seen that the networks weren't going to show it anyway. I wonder if Fox will?
