Delegates from Louisiana also weighed in on the third year anniversary
of Hurricanes Katrina and Rita – while tropical storm Gustav appears
to be gaining power as it makes its way through warm waters. Gustav has
already pounded the Caribbean with winds up to 65 miles per hour… If
it continues to move rapidly and becomes a Hurricane by the weekend,
Republicans say they could postpone their convention, which is set to
begin Monday in Saint Paul, Minnesota. Meanwhile, FEMA insists that
this time the agency is ready to assist with food and water if Gustav
strikes the Gulf. Back at the DNC last night, where Obama accepted his
party's nomination, Lynn Bankston was one of many delegates who wanted
to hear more about the recovery effort in the South.
