"...Donald Trump's hopes of delivering a "big surprise" at the Republican National Convention are officially rained out.
The real estate mogul had been excitedly promoting his scheduled contribution to this year's conservative confab, despite suggestions that his participation would simply amount to a bit where he'd fire an Obama impersonator.
Tropical Storm Isaac had other plans however, as the threat of heavy rains and extreme winds forced the GOP's planning committee to postpone the RNC, shifting Monday's events and canceling others. Trump's act, slated to take place on Monday, wasn't spared the chopping block. Some Republicans are thankful, the Washington Post reports, though Trump spokesman Michael Cohen maintained that Trump's show would have been quite the spectacle. ..."
What do you suppose his "big surprise" might have been? That he's taught the family of raccoons living on his head to do circus tricks?

Looks like the RNC is distancing themselves from the crazy.
