While President Obama continues to campaign and fundraise, Mitt Romney heads to the place where the Obama promise did not work.   The water did not recede.

LAKELAND, Fla. — In a last-minute change of plans, Mitt Romney will head to visit storm-affected areas in New Orleans today, skipping a previously scheduled joint rally with running mate Paul Ryan in the battleground state of Virginia this afternoon.

A Romney aide told ABC News that Romney will “join Gov. Jindal and will meet with first responders, thank them for their work and see areas impacted by the storm in LaFitte, La.”

The White House Freaks and reacts…..

Via Daily Caller:

President Barack Obama announced Friday that he’s heading to Louisiana, but he’ll arrive after Mitt Romney has toured the storm-damage state in company with the state’s popular Republican Gov. Bobby Jindal.

The president’s Sept. 3 visit was announced via a 11:54 a.m. tweet from White House communications director Daniel Pfeiffer. “President Obama will head to Louisiana on Monday to visit damage from Hurricane Isaac,” he tweeted.

(Weekly Standard) By the time Barack Obama visits the place in Louisiana where Hurricane Isaac hit on September 3, he will have made 7 campaign stops and held 8 campaign events since the storm first made landfall.

The storm, Hurricane Isaac, first made landfall on August 28, 2012, at about 6:45 p.m.

Since that time, here’s what Obama has done:

• He’s held an event on the cost of education at Fort Collins, Colorado. That was on August 28.
• Also, on August 28, Obama held a campaign event in Ames, Iowa. Likewise, the president spoke about education.
• The next day, Obama traveled to the swing state of Virginia for a event near the University of Virginia. In Charlottesville, Virginia, Obama spoke also about education and “the choice for young voters.”
• Today, Obama is going to Texas to talk to troops at Fort Bliss, Texas. The event today is meant to mark the anniversary of the official end of the Iraq war two years ago.
