Obama: “I am not worried…about the impact on the election…I’m worried about the impact on families …first responders…our economy and on transportation…right now our number 1 priority is that we are saving lives; that our search-and-rescue teams are going to be in place; that people are going to get the food, the water, the shelter that they need in case of emergency; and that we respond as quickly as possible to get the economy back on track.”
