You know the media and Obama administration right now are salivating over the prospect of a hurricane hitting New Orleans
Even if the Hurricane turns out to be a dud like Hurricane Gustav was, the media is still going to hype it up way out of proportion and Obama is going to get his photo op moments to make him look like some kind of savior, while the media shows split screen coverage of the response effort to what it was was like during Katrina.
Then the media will parrot how this response was a great one orchestrated by the savior Obama compared to the racist black hating response Bush's administration gave.
Also the media is going to focus completely on this hurricane, regardless of whether or not it is destructive, and give little coverage if any to the RNC convention. Token coverage is what you would call it.
