Oregon: Joe Lieberman

ST. PAUL -- After a brief hurricane hiatus, the Republican National Convention will be back in full swing Tuesday.

For the Oregon delegation, that will mean an 11:45 a.m. gathering for the BNSF Railway reception in downtown St. Paul before the evening convention session a few blocks away at the Xcel Center.

Convention organizers had trimmed the schedule Monday as Hurricane Gustav barreled toward the Gulf Coast, but as storm preparation turns to storm cleanup, GOP organizers are returning to their original schedule.
