I am amazed to learn that in New Orleans, they are actually considering putting the same man back in charge of the city who was in charge during the evacuation. Mayor Nagin is in a head-to-head race with a challenger with roughly the same philosophy, which is allegedly leading my NO-residents to consider taking him back.
This amazes me. Rudy Guiliani become great during 9/11 for doing everything (well, almost everything) right. He showed competence, skill, and wisdom during some of the hardest moments in NYC's history. He could not have gone on because of term limits as mayor, but pretty much had earned the job for life! Nagin, who appears to have done everything wrong, who at least was part of a leadership vacuum that lead to the horrible conditions and outcome of Hurricane Katrina should be regarded as the Anti-Guiliani and should not be able to find a job as dog catcher anywhere in the USA. Yet, he is being considered by the voters again. Am I way off here, and do not understand his role in the Katrina disaster? Or is this why N.O. wound up in such a bad place in the first place - an inability to honestly size up politicians and reward either failure or success?
