Most of the avoidable suffering in New Orleans because of Katrina was because of the ineptitude of the Democrat governor, the Democrat mayor, Democrat residents who failed to leave in time, Democrat looters, and perhaps Democrat local officials who failed to make sure the levees were in good enough condition. But the media put all the blame on Bush and Bush and the Republican Party did very little to counter that narrative.

When the massive oil spill happened in the Gulf in 2010, Obama did almost nothing and the media didn't give him any grief over it. Likewise with the Colorado wildfires or any other natural disasters since 1/20/2009--it's never portrayed as Obama's fault.

For 8 years the media waged a non-stop war against Bush (with a brief cease-fire for a few weeks after 9/11), and neither Bush nor the Republican Party ever seemed to know how to fight back. Since Obama took office, everything has still been blamed on Bush. If Obama wins, it will because a large part of the public still thinks the bad economy is Bush's fault.
