Bobby Jindal throws support behind Marco Rubio

CNN --Former Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal on Friday endorsed Florida Sen. Marco Rubio for president.

"Marco can unify our party. His optimistic message is bringing voters from across the party lines, from across different demographic groups," Jindal told Fox News' Greta Van Susteren. "He can unify our party. He can win this election in November."

"I think he's a principled conservative. I think he is the right guy to lead us forward," he added.

Jindal, who also was a candidate for president until he dropped his campaign in November, also said he was impressed by Rubio's foreign policy.

"Marco's been consistent about strengthening America's foreign policy," Jindal said. "Marco's consistently stood up to the threat of ISIS, radical Islam."

I support Ted Cruz, could support Trump, but will never support Rubio

I agree. Another one on the list is Gov. Nikki Haley of South Carolina. Her SOU rebuttal was a disgrace, and she has waged her own war on our history.

“What the hell are you screeching at me for? I’m not a Cruz supporter.”

I wasn’t! I was agreeing! Sorry for the misunderstanding!

Oh, OK, I thought you were accusing me of ‘Polishing Cruz’s knob’ or something.

Have a good evening, FRiend.

Re: Marco’s endorsements

Pikers, every last one of them.

I hear a death knell for Marco’s campaign coming......now.

We want winners here, not pikers.

RE: Jindal, Rubio, Cruz ... where are all the people named Smith, Jackson, Williams, Adams?

We still have Trump, Bush, Christie and Carson.

I don’t know if you have objections to Fiorina ( Italian ) and Kasich ( Croatian/Czech ).....

Editor needs to be careful using “Rubio” and “behind” in the same headline.

“Pool Boy, oh Pool Boy, clean the filter, please. Your foam party last night clogged it.”

“My brother said he really misses Strom Thurmond and none today at fit to be mentioned in the same sentence with him.”

That’s a fact. At the age of 40 Strom Thurmond stepped down from the judicial bench to serve in WWII, including as part of the Normandy invasion force. And today it is a surprise when some GOP figure doesn’t revile him.

I don’t know how you can include Cruz on that list.

RE: Of course Jindal favors illegal immigration. After all he’s barely an anchor baby.

Jindal’s parents were here LEGALLY.

It looks more and more like I won’t be voting Republican on election day. Rubio, or any other RINO, I will not vote for.

He was conceived in India. They left India in Jan 71. He was born in Jun 71.

If he’d been on a boat and it had been delayed, he could have taken his picture with the boat’s anchor.
