By Las Vegas Sun

Nevada Gov. Brian Sandoval has held on to his prime-time speaking slot at the Republican National Convention this week after Tropical Storm Isaac forced the cancellation of the convention’s opening night.

Sandoval will speak at 6pm Tuesday and is expected to keep to the original theme of the opening night: “We can do better.”

He will discuss his personal story growing up in a working class family and then accuse President Obama of putting the American dream at risk.

Sandoval was originally set to speak Monday evening, but convention business was canceled until Tuesday because of the oncoming storm.

On a conference call Sunday, party officials said they plan to stick to a Tuesday-through-Thursday schedule while keeping an eye on Isaac, which is expected to develop into a hurricane by the time it reaches land Tuesday.

    Sandoval speaking prime time at the GOP convention(he may be an up and comer, but he by no means is a prolific orator!)? And they wonder why their party is so lackluster. What is their master plan in this campaign? Lulling us to sleep so we forget to vote?

    OBAMA BY 6-8 POINTS IN NOVEMBER!
