The Associated Press reports today that folks in the Midwest have nice things to say about the Federal Emergency Management Agency's response to the floods that have devastated the region.

"I think they've made a world of improvement both in terms of their preparedness and in terms of their attitude," said Sen. Claire McCaskill, D-Mo. "My sense is they are no longer thinking they can deliver disaster relief from a cubicle in Virginia and are fully engaged on the ground."

Of course, if you've been reading Government Executive in the past few months, the news that FEMA is on the mend won't come as a surprise to you.
