Republican convention script set for rewrite Day One
Day One at the Republican National Convention in St Paul features a sharply altered script with quick seatings and a shortened program. Reports say a hurricane threat, speeches trimmed, a presidential visit canceled, and disclosures about a potential running mate's legal counsel and her daughter's pregnancy. Delegates acknowledge the need to improvise as the traditionally rehearsed process gives way to uncertainty about how unscripted events will shape messages from John McCain and Barack Obama.
