What if they gave a Republican convention
and nobody came?

So far any Republican up for re-election is avoiding it like the plague.

Now Bush & Cheney aren't going, and McCain is talking about not going!

1. You mean, meet in secret & plot to overthrow the government?
Weren't you around on 2000?

3. If Gustav fizzles... goes down to a cat 2 and dissolves inland..
then they'll have to SCRAMBLE to get the convention up and running again...

THAT would be a win-win!!

6. After the Democrats last week, what would you expect!?!?!?!
There is no way in hell they could top that!!! They would not get the viewers or any positive feed-back to speak of! Bush/Cheney was a no-brainer- avoid them like the plague! McCain/Unknown(they call her Palin) can't hold a candle to Obama and Biden- the numbers and the results would be seriously embarrassing and positively disastrous- of course, they don't want a convention!! Plus they don't know how to party or dance!!!!!!:party: :hippie: :toast: :boring: :beer: :headbang: :rofl: :patriot:
