Oct. 31, 2012: President Obama hugs North Point Marina owner Donna Vanzant as he tours damage done by Hurricane Sandy in Brigantine, N.J. (Reuters)

Obama doesn't need their votes any more. He got what he wanted. I just hope the people of New Jersey, New York and Long Island remember the lies and false promises on the next election days in the years to come.
