What are the chances of a Sandy Bump

[chemp]

Hitting the Katrina States?
Louisiana, Mississippi? Alabama? Florida?

Will the Obama reaction to Sandy reflect upon those who had to live through the Bush Katrina disaster?
Could new polls open up former solid red states? Swing Florida to big Blue?

1. I wouldn't count on it.

Those voters don't really care about competence now, do they?

2. Maybe FL

Obama nearly has it tied up.

LA, MS, AL are lost to Obama, and probably every other Democratic candidate for decades.

6. I'm in Louisiana, have lots of relatives in Mississippi - Sandy won't make a difference . . .

to those already planning to vote republican. The bigots can't get past the color of the President's skin. Sometimes I have to remind myself that this is 2012.

7. No TV. No Faux News. No RWNJ propaganda.

Of course the polls are going to shift in Obama's favor. Once the veil of the alternative RWNJ world is pulled off, people return to reality.

Let's translate the momentum to votes!

8. AL,MS,LA...not a chance

but yes, I think it will help us in FL. Enough to make it blue? We'll see. O's PV will definitely be boosted in all 4.
