Obama is providing EXACTLY what the woman needs - comfort, understanding, and promise of helping her rebuild with assistance.

Trust me on that. That picture might have just won Obama's 2nd term.

"But the president got a reminder of next week's election from someone who wrote "ROMNEY" in large letters in the sand at the north end of the beach." I guess that person had hoped Romney would come and help them, instead of FEMA. Weird.

Oh, that's right, holding a "storm relief event" in Ohio stocked with $5,000 worth of canned goods bought from Walmart.

America is seeing who really cares right now.

I've seen tweets today from people saying Obama came down and reassured them that America has their back, and made them feel better.

Now THAT is a Commander-in-Chief. Very comforting, knowing he's the one on watch over our country every night. A steady hand steering the ship of state, with intelligence, compassion, and generosity.
