And if Ted Cruz says the same thing as Bobby Jindal, what then?

Ted Cruz fights the GOPe and Bobby Jindal is part of the GOPe IMHO......

That’s where I see the difference.

On Saturday in Iowa Ted did use the reference of “knowing them by their fruits” in regards to people who will claim the mantle of conservatism in their quest for the presidency in the months ahead.

One thing I remember regarding Jindal was his short lived effort to give members of his state legislature double digit percentage pay increases.

It happened some eight or nine years ago early in his reign as governor of LA.

I was shocked when I heard that because it had been tried here in Pennsylvania where I lived and the revolt in both parties against it was overwhelming with many politicians (a dozen or more) defeated in both parties primaries and other incumbents going down in the general election of 2006.
