The problem for republicans blaming Sandy for coming loss


Sandy isn't some scheme cooked up by Democrats it was a natural disaster. Part of the Presidents job is to handle the aftermath of such events. About 78% believe the President is doing a good on his handling of the storm. So by blaming Sandy they will also be blaming the President for doing his job, and doing it well.

Don't know how it happened but it did and will bring home the victory for President Obama. His team was so cordinated and had FEMA in place to help the NJ and NY folks. They are lucky that President Obama was there to help them as it would have be a very uncordinated mess if Bush was still in office.

Obama was there to get the folks food and water and get the clean up started. I just saw a very good TV commercial and thought it was a campaign commercial but it was a Public service about the storm with President Obama being the focal point. He can't buy that great Public service spot. He looked and is very presidential.
