This is what I call PRESIDENTIAL!!!!

2. This is a great statement

I just hope that the POTUS and others don't forget North Carolina. We have been dealing with this storm for more than 48 hours now. Widespread damage here on the Outer Banks.

3. To which Rmoney campaign responded,

"Did the Governor say that federal assistance is immoral? He doesn't remember saying that, but if that's what he said, he stands behind it. Unless it contradicted something else he said, in which case he stands behind both statements. Finally, we would like to see the body count before we bash the president's handling of the opportu...er, tragedy".
