First, I doubt any real Republican in Louisianna is joining Novack and the media in blaming Bush for what Blanko and Nagin have done during this disaster and for what incompetent and corrupt democats did before the election with the levee. Also real Republicans would not be sitting around waiting for Bush to rebuild their State. They would expect local and State officials to get busy rather than shift blame and whine.
But, if they claim to be Republicans and are that stupid, they were not really Republicans anyway. Looking at the elected officials who showed up on television, Republicans in Louisianna are not too influential in the effected areas so it won't matter if the Democrats turn against Republicans.
I hate to tell ya this, but I know lotsa folks(honestly registered Republicans) in the New Orleans area who do blame Presidnt Bush. Mary Landrieu made the greatest political move I have ever seen after learning that the canal floodwalls broke. She started screaming "it's Bush's fault, it's Bush's fault". The local media immediately picked it up, followed by the LSM and now it's a common belief down here. Heck even David Vitter starting spouting off about the federal government and President Bush's policies. It has been a sad time here.
