Gustav and Palin


So the two main things discussed in our household,
and mostly because the TV news is on
all the time are
Hurricane Gustav and
VP nomination of Palin.

I'll start with her as she is the lesser of two evils.
I really like her story,
her being a woman in power.
But her nomination is calculated,
and would never have happened had it not been for Hillary Clinton.
I don't believe she is the best qualified candidate.
She has no foreign policy experience,
as Obama's campaign has already noted.
Unless removing caribou from your car is
key qualification in VP candidate,
I just don't see her as it.

Now....Gustav.
Oh my poor New Orleans.
I'm worried.
Cuba, specifically Havana is screwed.
We'll see the damage soon.
Glad I'm not in the Grand Cayman Islands,
where I would have been had I chosen to go to med school.
And I can't believe I escaped Tulane
just in time for round two.

Fingers crossed it hits Texas!
Not that it will help much.
Also...side note I've been thinking about,

How will Gustav affect the upcoming election?

Michelle Obama

Her speech was amazing.

I think she should run for president!
Talk about a killer pair.
I would be so proud to have her
represent the US in an international market.
And the little girls at the end are adorable.

I am very impressed and can't wait to hear Obama speak.
