Most of us were affected at some level - If you think some of the problems could have been prevented, who do you think was most responsible for the mess?

I wish there was an option for "Individuals" since everyone should be responsible for themselves.  The parents complaining about the school system not shutting down had access to the same information and should have had the most vested interest in protecting their kids and making the best decision. 

I was responsible for what caused me to sit in 4 hours of traffic.   //:hlp//

The cities and County's really messed this one up bad. They should have had sand/salt trucks going as soon as it started not 5 hours after

I voted "other," to encompass the governor, county governments, municipal governments, school boards, employers and drivers with inadequately prepared vehicles. I can forgive inexperience in the South; I can't forgive driving your leased BMW with summer tires when you know it's going to snow.

For Atlanta, the MAYOR.  He is full of BS.  He wanted al the credit in the first press conference, and then said that only the streets of Atlanta are his responsibility in the remaining interviews.  He blamed it on everyone leaving at once, just ignorant.  Clean roads would have been clear in hours.  He was having lunch with guess who, the GOVENOR whe this all went down. 

The STATE DOT/ Govenor for the Interstates.  He sat around all morning and didn't release the trucks.  The DOT guy took the fall for that later, and said it was his MISTAKE.  They also said they had moved most equipment further south.  I can see that based on the forecast days before, but when it changed the night before, move everything ASAP 7Am.  The interstates could have all been salted and sanded and would have been mostly clear.  ROME GA had no problems like ATL as they started coating roads at daylight.
This includes all STATE HWYS that are MAJOR thoroughfares across the burbs.

Most local municipality's are equipped to handle it so hard to blame them. 

Blame BUSH!  Everything else has been his fault.

Im on the phone so no poll but the people.  They couldn't have kept their kids from going to school and then their idiotic driving skills didnt help the situation.
