I'll bet Bill Clinton is somewhere thinking, "Damn, why couldn't that hurricane have hit while I was president?"

[Josh in PA]

Oh it won't take long before the left jumps on board..

"Bush is politicizing a natural disaster!! He's turning the death of poor people in trailer parks into a political poker chip."

[snooker]

The whining has already started. 'Why is it taking so long'. The drumbeat will become deafening if Bush isn't seen as compassionate, caring and acting.

The media will shred W with the 'not doing anything' label unless he is seen to take charge.

To the media, perception is reality. And if the media can generate a negative perception of W, you can bet your bottom dollar they will. The partisan media will find the pictures, set the stage and then ... Kerry is just waiting for the signal to start the attacks.

The hurricane was funded by Texas fat cats with strong ties to Karl Rove.

[Mr Ramsbotham]

What Bush ought to do is go to Florida clandestinely, without making a big media deal of it. Then when the critics pounce with the expected "Bush is Insensitive" nonsense, he can reveal that he was there.

I'm sure Disney World is having a gay old time today.

[Lacey]

I distinctly remember Bush 41 getting trounced in 92 for not visiting FL after that hurricane. Now they'll trounce 43 for visiting. No matter what he does they'll gripe. What else is new?

[Use It Or Lose It]

Betcha Kerry shows up first.

[The Wizard]

his brother will be with him and he will visit the damaged town
