US-VOTE-RNC2008-SECURITY
Law enforcement officers on horseback patrol outside the Xcel Energy Center during preparations for the Republican National Convention (RNC) August 31, 2008 in St. Paul, Minnesota. Republican White House hopeful John McCain suspended most of Monday's first day of his nominating convention, as Hurricane Gustav sparked political turmoil as it zeroed in on New Orleans. Party leaders scrambled to change their plans, keen not to be seen by voters as mounting a celebratory event while a potential natural disaster unfolds on the Gulf Coast, exactly three years after the Hurricane Katrina tragedy.
