Who is this young woman talking?
What in the name of God is going on with the LA state government? It took them FOUR whole days to figure out that they could use school busses for evacuation! Can any LA folks confirm my impression that gov Blanco would be better suited to be a WalMart greeter than a state governor? The woman is totally out of her league. Who was her Republican opponent and how could he/she ever lose to this empty suit?
