What I think is happening is that the woman was getting direction from someone in the DNC, who was telling her not to lose control of the situation and provide another 9/11 success for Bush. The woman didn't know how to do that and everything that she did was wrong. Note, that the Clintons sent their FEMA director to try to bail out Blanco, but it was a little late. You can guess who might have been directing her not give Bush the political advantage of bailing out NOLA.
Interesting. See post #80.
