Hopefully they’ll remember the anti-bacterial soap so the Occutards and other Leftists can shower with natural rain water, and blow dry with natural winds.

Yup, it’s shaping up to be rainy and a little windy. Just enough to ruin the occutards protests. This storm is very good news indeed. If it is just nasty enough to ruin their protests, but not enough to effect the convention, they will be doubly as obnoxious at the Democrat shindig in North Carolina.

This hurricane scare coverage is driving me crazy. First of all, it is a tropical storm, not a hurricane. Second, it is miles away below Cuba. It will lose a lot of power driving across Cuba, and may be just a rainstorm after that. Thirdly, we have no idea where it will make landfall once it gets past Cuba, if it even gets past. It could make landfall anywhere from Galveston to Miami.

Looks like it is starting to be more of a New Orleans problem than a Tampa problem.

The Dems wishing this storm into Tampa won’t make it so.
