I hope the folks of LA recall her. She clearly lacked(s) the skills necessary, especially when dealing with a crisis.

NAGIN: The president looked at me. I think he was a little surprised. He said, "No, you guys stay here. We're going to another section of the plane, and we're going to make a decision."

He called me in that office after that. And he said, "Mr. Mayor, I offered two options to the governor." I said -- and I don't remember exactly what. There were two options. I was ready to move today. The governor said she needed 24 hours to make a decision.

S. O'BRIEN: You're telling me the president told you the governor said she needed 24 hours to make a decision?

NAGIN: Yes.

S. O'BRIEN: Regarding what? Bringing troops in?

NAGIN: Whatever they had discussed. As far as what the -- I was abdicating a clear chain of command, so that we could get resources flowing in the right places.

S. O'BRIEN: And the governor said no.

NAGIN: She said that she needed 24 hours to make a decision. It would have been great if we could of left Air Force One, walked outside, and told the world that we had this all worked out. It didn't happen, and more people died.

She was terrible on Fox News this morning, it was impossible to try to discern any message from her other than she's overwhelemed and nothing is her fault.

This woman is giving all us women a bad name. There is no crying in crisis management!

Maybe people will relate this woman's reactions to another woman, Hillary. How would a woman react as a President. I don't believe this but, many might think that most women might fall apart like Blanco.

Did you see her on GMA today? Diane Sawyer was more informed than she was. How scary is that.

Very few females are capable of leading in such a crisis which requires a mind that understands war. This Kath Blanco dolt showed her incompetence before during and after the hurricane. Margaret Thatcher could have handled this easy. She's the exception.

K. Baboon Blanco is a poor excuse for a governor.

The "Blame Bush" brigade will get no traction from this tragedy.

As I've been saying.... she's a social worker, glad hander and ribbon cutter. Some one who in Donk parlance "brings people together". But she incapable when the pressure is really on, such as this powerful hurricane.

Blanco's misbehavior is the way Democrats handle terrorism and wars. Firing a few cruise missiles into a tent Osama Bin Laden left yesterday. By police chief Moose in Maryland concentrating on white suspects
