I was disappointed in the answers because it seems like those that responded were very negative. Instead of looking at the disaster response to these storms as a teaching experience for Repug voters - so we can illustrate why we need a big government - most approached their answer to the question I posed very negatively. With that kind of an attitude by Dems - it's no wonder why we lose elections.
