Well, Blanco committed several error that were avoidable. Her first error was not knowing how to mobilize the requisite number of troops under her command despite FEMA's intervention. Blanco also seemd scared to make a decision instantly, which will bite her in the end. So, she most certainly has egg on her face - even that Newsweek article acknowledges that. But the point is, if she had said, a la Bush, mistakes were made at the state level and I take responsibility for those and we are going to make sure they are never made again, then W's alleged epiphany would have had less prominence.
