John McCain and Airhead Palin take great pride in repeating the claim that John McCain is a maverick, but those days are long gone. John McCain sold his soul to get this chance at the White House, and threw his principles out the window in the process.

One of the lessons learned from Katrina, is that you pay attention to what the storm could do, and not just what you think it will do.
Sage advice there. And also why it amazes me that in this day and age of advanced meteorology that people still die in hurricanes. That's humanity for you, I guess--always thinking it can out last, out run or out last Mother Nature.
As side note from someone who lives in earthquake country (and yes, WA state IS quake country), at least you GET days of warning with hurricanes--even if the path of the storm(s) deviate(s) from the models somewhat.
Quakes? No such warning ever. And no fun either. Unless you're a weirdo like me.
