Superstorm Sandy is the best thing that could have happened to Barack Obama’s re-election effort. The disaster on the East Coast stopped Mitt Romney’s campaign momentum, gave Mr. Obama the opportunity to get off the campaign trail (where people have grown tired of his voice and his stale ideas), and gave the president the opportunity to look “presidential” (not hard when standing next to Chris Christie, who developed an overnight “man-crush” on Mr. Obama). The question for voters: Do you trust the president, who has been quick to show up for hurricane photo ops but who has done nothing but pour more Big Government water on the economic storm wreckage he “inherited”?
