  Louisiana Governor Blanco Must Go
Governor Blanco is willing to spend three million dollars minimum to get herself re-elected, but, has not found the money to help the dumbfounded make their way back home for the state which is essential to building confidence in its future.
We do not know if Blanco resisted calling in the National Guard because she feared and/or was perhaps under pressure from local governments in the greater New Orleans area not to do anything that might move the Katrina evacuees into their immediate areas, but we do see that such was the effect.
If Blanco wants to run for Governor this year, then she will have to provide answers to the questions that matter, because the visible results which presented themselves to our eyes as the television cameras put the Katrina tragedy before the world cannot be ignored.

 Facing South: Gulf Watch: Katrina politics and the troubled state of our union
Spurred by former FEMA Director Michael Brown's charges of partisanship in the Bush administration's Hurricane Katrina response, Louisiana Gov.
