Why is Cruz being ignored by the media??? Just like Walker was. You would think this race was between trump, Carson and Bush. Cruz is third and barely ever mentioned. Hew raised almost as much $ as Carson but ignored. The powers that be want him OUT.
Come back to the five and dime Bobby Jindal Bobby Jindal.
Or the Quickee Mart. Whatever.
That’s not nice, with his brains he should be vice president of Microsoft. There, I said it.
I heard a conservative running for state office running against the condition of Louisiana right now. Debt, taxes and failing economy. Jindal needs to go to the private sector for a while. Think a bit, rehab his reputation, and move on.
“Trump hates rednecks and the Confederate flag. He’s made that abundantly clear.”
I hate New York provincialism and arrogant yankees, but I am still going to vote for one.
“Heard on Hannity today that Jindal was either being considered, or his name, at least floated, for Speaker of the House.”
If he didn’t succumb to hubris - which seems to be his drug of choice these days - he could excel at that. He is a remarkable admin guy. He was a real asset for Governor Foster back in the day.
Damn, there are so many hoops to jump through, I'm not sure how anyone can earn support of the forum.
Sadly, I fail on the Death Penalty Litmus Test, so I'd be considered a RINO if I ran for office.
He is termed out for now, and has not proven to be popular or effective as an executive. People blame him for much of the state’s poor economy and resent his sometimes draconian budget cutting.
He isn’t a leader. He is a brilliant support for a strong leader, but seems uninterested in a support role now days.
I don’t live in Louisiana...but in a bordering state.
They have had a poor economy for as long as I remember. They really can’t blame it on Jindal, imho.
It has fallen considerably. When oil is up, things are better. What Jindal has done that is on him is some fairly random and extreme budget cutting. Sort of like giving haircuts with a weed whacker.
If times were better, he’d be doing better. You are correct that much of it is not his fault.
>>>They only support adulterers<<<
I must have missed that Episode of Duck Dynasty.
Who said it, Jase or Uncle Si?
I used to respect Jindal until he went kamikaze on Trump in order to get one day’s publicity for his dismal campaign. I’m sure he’ll get some cushy job running a university or a think tank or something.
I have never seen that show, but they endorsed a candidate for the House of Representatives. He was later got on video, um, fraternizing with the wife of a neighbor or friend. He refused to resign and was pretty petulant about it.
Because that is what Trump is for. Remember, he is part of the media. The Trump campaign made sure the Republican primary is conservatism free. He's even better for the GOPe than Jeb is.
Wouldn’t he have to be elected to Congress first?
I don't see why that should be a litmus test failure. A lot of conservatives feel that big government is limited. After all, if limiting government authority is your goal it makes sense not to give the government the ultimate authority, right?
Personally, I don't think the Confederate flag should be a litmus test. But Trump and his supporters claim he is so un-P.C., when the truth is he's extremely P.C. on 90% of the issues, and he's lying about most the rest. He's much more O.C. than not.
I assume they didn’t know he was an Adulterer when they Endorsed him, but I could be mistaken.
Uncle Si would know, he knows everything.
Your loss, you're only hurting yourself by going GOPe. Trump is Big Government and anti-Christian
Hopefully they didn’t know, and I guess they did send a relative to run against him. But it’s a lesson to all of us, not to trust these dirtbag politicians.
