bill and a wild card called gustav

I thought Bill Clinton's speech was good. Especially this: "People the world over have always been more impressed by the power of our example than by the example of power."

Agreed. And he was generous in praising Barack Obama.

And the wild card - Hurricane Gustav. Headed for New Orleans? I hope not.

And not to be crass, but if it hits hard, will FEMA and the Administration react better than they did to Katrina in 2005? And what would that do to the election...
