I Predict

At least some of these things will happen

• Drudge, the Washington Times, or other useful tools will start the character assasination of Governor Blanco or Mayor Nagin -- After they start blaming the Feds.
• New Orleans will turn into some kinda Mad Max land. Left to those looters and shooters. The city will essentially be given to them.
• Bush will use the coming disorder and collapse to seize power.

What else?

• That it will be as long for a major Democrat in Washington to step up and show some leadership. I saw Clinton on TV namby-pamby. This is not the time to rally around der leader. This is the time to seize leadership.
