I don't mean to convict the man, but he specifically mentioned the convention center and said aid had already been 'sent' and it was all under control. It was not under control in any sense of the word last time they broadcast from there, and nothing had arrived. I hope it has by now, I really do.

Perhaps there is a "local name" problem ... the SuperDome is NOT THE CONVENTION CENTER. The Convention Center is a long building down by RiverWalk and it is very spacious but I'd expect it to be in a flood zone. If you have someone saying water was sent to the convention center and then have cameras panning around the SuperDome, it would be the same thing as confusing Capitol Hill with the White House (probably about that distance too).
