But this article goes a loooong way in explaining why Blanco was so resistant to federalizing the operation and why Landrieu and Blanco hate FEMA and blame them for EVERYTHING.

Yes it does. She also gave the reason why she didn't want to federalize the effort. She said something to the effect that 'if it was turned over to the FEDs they would blame us if it went wrong'.

That statement didn't make much sense at the time. But it does now.
