What did you expect. Mayor Nagin is a political moron and Governor Blanco is a political hack. Neither has any experience in providing leadership under duress. They are just like all other Democrats, blowhards, lightweights and failures, but certainly not capable of effective action in trying times. Rudy Guillani, John McCain, GW Bush, Frank Keating, Jeb Bush they are not. The people of Louisiana that voted these buffoon Democrat scum into office are getting just what they voted for. But, don't fret people of New Orleans, FEMA. GW Bush, and the US Army Engineers will save your sorry butts.
Nagin has been remarkably unimpressive and Blanco has a wide-eyed look of confusion that's better accustomed to a middle manager in a big firm being asked a question at a department meeting.
