22. Paul Reynolds is good, but still
The people he writes about has stuck by their people, and have fought for them. I'm not that blame-oriented, really.
There's usually plenty to go around - just ask our prime minister. He was asked to resign after the tsunami last year because the Norwegians affected was angry. Much of that criticizm was just, but to ask for his resignation was over the top.
He didn't screw up.
It's takes often a crisis to prove who you are, and Nagin has stood by his electorate.

Apart from that, I agree that politics in New Orleans probably was just as dirty and imperfect as everywhere else.
But it starts and ends with FEMA, we know that now.
