2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumBobby Jindal
Gov. Bobby Jindal of Louisiana is part of a younger generation of reform-minded Republicans that has been accumulating power in the state. The first Indian-American to be elected governor, Mr. Jindal was raised Hindu but converted to Catholicism in college.
Seen as a wunderkind, Mr. Jindal was a Rhodes Scholar and was appointed to run Louisianas largest department, Health and Human Services, at the age of 24. Though he lost his first gubernatorial bid to Kathleen Babineaux Blanco, he easily won in 2007, in a political atmosphere starkly changed by Hurricane Katrina.
Mr. Jindal gained some national attention in 2008 when he was interviewed by Senator John McCain as a possible presidential running mate, and endured some mockery after his less-than-effective rebuttal to President Obama's budget speech in 2009.

Latest quote on the campaign trail from Bobby: Jindal said that he has 2 problems with #ObamaCO. One: most liberal since President Jimmy Carter. Two: Most incompetent since Carter

(420 posts)For this "moran" to compare Obama to Carter just shows that he's just repeating the party drivel. Next he'll be bringing up the '73 oil crisis in comparison to the price of gas now. These people really have no shame.
