As Storm Disrupts Plans, G.O.P. Takes Up Tensions. (The New York Times, 8/27/2012)

Excerpt: The storm also posed a delicate challenge for President Obama, whose efforts to manage the response may have given him a moment to look presidential in Mr. Romney’s absence, but were also fraught with the risk of appearing to take advantage of a natural disaster at a highly politicized moment.

You know, Jim and Mike, during a natural disaster such as Tropical Storm -- soon to be Hurricane -- Isaac, I don't think the President gives a rat's ass what's going on inside the Tampa Bay Times Forum.  He'll focus on the people in the path of the storm who need the federal government's attention and help.
