Early indications on Wednesday were yes, at least by President Barack Obama and GOP challenger Mitt Romney, leaving it to surrogates and others to do the political dirty work. Obama planned to tour storm damage in New Jersey with Republican Gov. Chris Christie, a frequent critic who has praised the president's response to the disaster. While Obama has avoided overt political statements in the aftermath of the storm, he is making sure to publicize his role in the federal response. Before heading to New Jersey, the president visited the Federal Emergency Management Agency to meet with officials. On Tuesday, Obama stopped by the American Red Cross and also held a conference call with governors and mayors in affected states, promising immediate and efficient help for the most critical needs.

Key:
- Aggregate Sentiment is meant to be an indicator of an individual's overall sentiment.
- The Mean is meant to be an indicator of an individual's average comment sentiment.
- The Standard Deviation, when there are enough quotes, will indicate an individual's consistency of sentiment (i.e. a Standard Deviation of 0 would mean they were very consistent in their sentiment and 1 would mean they were very inconsistent).
Note that quote stats are likely to be meaningless beyond the aggregate score due to the tiny sample size. However, they are always provided just in case you find something useful there.
