Blame this one on Blanco and Nagin, Penske

Originally posted by nononono I think you mentioned how you do not live in Polarized World and so it's possible there were screwups all around. I agree. But I'd say that putting aside lack of preparedness beforehand (perhaps Nagin's area), it was and is reasonable to expect the governor of the state to do something other than cry and punt. ATthe very least she should have made sure that her people worked with and for the feds or whoever could come in and do the job her folks could not. It wasn't the time to be afraid of decisions or to be worried about appearances. And what was she doing going on tv complaining about not getting help if she wasn't able to accept it?

Are you suggesting that the only thing Blanco has done is "cry and punt"? News to me, but I'd be happy to read about it. And who said she wasn't about to accept help?
