Well, I think with Katrina there was enough blame to go around. While the federal government blew it, the state and local governments blew it too. In fact, the fact that recovery has taken so long and is incomplete probably has more to do with the state and local government than the feds.

One of the reasons I think Bush got so much blame for Katrina was how long it took him to go down there; and when he got there, it didn't appear that he was horrified. Then was the "Hell of a job Brownie"... But, in fairness, Bush was not aware that "Brownie" was about to leave, and that FEMA had never successfully integrated into DHS. I think Bush suffered from bad optics. Clinton was much better at demonstrating that "he felt their pain".
