You are the one promoting Blanco's remarkable job throughout this catastrophe, not me. You are the one who dragged the speculation of the prior governor's failure if faced with the same situation - all of this after you said you didn't want to get into a blame game. That spoke volumes.
I am not saying Blanco did a wonderful job and has no criticism. But its time for a reality check. THere are public servants both Repubs and Dems that are involved on the local level. I here to point out that perhaps that the "everyone screwed up story" portrayed by the press doesnt really seem to help alot. Esp since I have seen alot that went right but because reporters dont get past Baton ROuge they dont see it. That goes to all levels of govt.Did Blanco mess up in part sure. But I am willing to wait until we have all the facts before criticizing every one.
To be honest I have known Blanco for years and she even though a loyal dem she isnt a southern corrupt DEM. I think she has been since and is sincere as to what she said about Bush.
