As Gustav closes in on New Orleans 3 years after Katrina the Republicans have a massive PR problem on their hands. What is it you might ask? It’s the picture above of the birthday celebration while an American city was drowning. It’s not at all surprising that having pictures of delegates partying in Minnesota juxtaposed with Gustav and Katrina flashbacks is not the presentation of the National Convention that they would desire.

Couple that with the bone-headed VP choice and the bar set by Obama’s acceptance speech and McCain finds himself in a very tough spot. Let’s see how he responds.
