ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP) -- Cindy McCain has taken the stage at the Republican National Convention to urge support for people caught up in Hurricane Gustav.
McCain was the warm-up act for her husband, John, who was ready to come to the floor and accept his party's presidential nomination.
Before speaking, she introduced their seven children to the cheering delegates. McCain's wife then told of ``stirring stories'' she has heard of people helping people in bad times. She said more could be done ``if only the federal government would get itself under control and out of our way.''
Yankee Parade from the Sky There is no better way to see how many fans showed up to cheer on the Yankees as the worked their way through the Canyon of Heroes better than from the sky. Tom Kaminski took these photos from Chopper 880. Enjoy!
