Will rain dampen the enthusiams of the true believers who will fill Invesco Mile High to hear the gospel according to Barack????????

I can see the MSM spin it that the faithful stuck it out, even in the face of bad weather, if that happens.

Somehow the names Sodom and Gomorrah come to mind to describe the Democrats, but I shan’t wish the fate of those two cities upon Denver.

I want the weather and the acoustics to be perfect, so that everybody can focus on the message. If it’s too windy, the empty suit will be flapping in the breeze.

I would like to shower downtown during the convention with a bunch of CCW citizens openly carrying.

We could use the rain. It's been a dry summer.

It's so sweet those Focus folks are praying to help us out. :-))

Even though it seems logical!

If it's too windy, that empty suit will quickly become a kite with no string attached.

Too mild.

All of the above, plus funnel clouds driven by a cold front turning to sleet and freezing rain on the back side.

Would it be wrong to pray that McCain wins the Presedencany on his own merit? And that is by announcing a true conservative Platform at the convention.

2nd Amendment.

Immigration both - legal and illegal.
I don't expect the borders to be 100% closed in the next for years, but we need noticeably tighter controls. And and that goes with legal immigration also.

Sanctity of Life

Pro-Growth Economy
starting with extending Bush Tax cuts

Energy Plan.
And I mean a realistic one. DRIL NOW

National Security
8 more years without another 9/11 would be proof that it is working.

Iraq War.
Stand down only when the military leaders say the situation calls for the reduction of troops in Iraq. The Bush Plan.

Judges.
Choose well. And we are not just talking SCOTUS. The next president will choose hundreds of judges.

Ethics.
The GOP needs to clean house of some bad apples.

Spending.
Always a Mccain strong point. Keep it that way.

Anyone remember the sudden storm that hit during the TV extravaganza for the opening of the Titanic’s purser’s safe? I wouldn’t mind seeing a re-run in Denver.

Presedencany??? Dril???

I meant “presidency” and “Drill”

I think we also need to pray Freepers use spell check more often. LOL at myself.

Personally, I want them to fight among themselves and kill each other.

Better yet - how about praying for a wind storm that will
go from east to west.
That will carry all of the teargas from downtown to Invesco Field.

pray for torrential rain

Just have Al Gore attend and there will be snow, sleet and record breaking cold.
