So we're left with the slate of rumored Republican picks, among them Florida Governor Charlie Crist, Alaska Governor Sarah Palin, former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney, Minneapolis Governor Tim Pawlenty, and Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal. They all have plusses and minuses, but one stands out: Bobby Jindal. Here's why:

8. Why wasn't I informed of this?
Geez, I'm surrounded by idiots.

For example, the last time I went to Venice, nobody told me that the streets were filled with water!
