1. Is a tiny, little, focused hurricane too much to hope for?
Am I reaching for the stars here?

2. It was pointed out that Tampa is the "Lap Dance" capital of America
so it seems a good location for the GOP convention

3. Complimentary aroma therapy by BP
You'll be able to inhale the very essence of the GOP with all the toxic fumes, dead animals, and ruined plant life rotting in the gulf as a result of the GOP's "profit-first" mentality.

8. Yep
If the spewing goes on for three months + as predicted, Tampa will smell like the ass end of a gas station for a long time. And a lot of angry locals, who might otherwise be GOP voters, will be throwing balloons and baggies full of oily water and sand at all of them as they arrive. I will not be surprised if they find a reason to move the location as the Gulf oil volcano gets worse and worse.

4. I'm not sure that picking Tampa...
has anything to do with it but I do think Jeb will be the nominee.

5. It's so Michael Steele can browse the cigar shops daily.
And he can hunt for those "black-market" Cubans that are located under some counters.

6. Well, it was there or Phoenix
And we all know how awful the weather is in Arizona during July. Tampa's just sooo much nicer. And it doesn't have anything to do with the stink of racism hanging over Arizona, so stop saying that.

7. For those who don't remember, here's an example of Jeb's machinations during the 9/11 saga...
