I believe NJ was already tenuous for Obama because the economy of this state has been in the toilet for a decade; people voted for Governor Christie out of frustration, and he remains popular after the layoffs of thousands of public school teachers, cops, and other government workers. The storm won’t be blamed on Obama, but it will add to the general discontent of a dying state. Even the welfare reservations are showing little enthusiasm for Obama; as blacks are increasingly marginalized by the Hispanics imported to replace them they no longer believe in “hope and change”. Whites dealing with the same issue with Asians have little to cheer about either.
Good points. I saw all of that photo opp-ing as a help to Christie. He needs to look good and wants to be re-elected too. All political. Blind faith in leaders = a shame. Like Rush pointed out this week, loosely quoted, “No government will save you! - private businesses/people will.”
