There will be a lot of pressure for Jindal to run for the U.S. Senate in 2010, when David Vitter will undoubtedly be retiring.
No, we need him as governor. Vitter should run again.
Jindal can’t (nor should) run for the Senate in 2010. Mitch Landrieu would become Governor and would likely preside over redistricting (and, yes, he probably would be outright elected Governor in 2011). Vitter did something dumb, but by 2010, it will largely be forgotten. If he does decide to step down, one of the 5 Congressmembers could take a run (Alexander, Boustany, Scalise, Cassidy or the 4th district winner next month).
I was wondering about Vitter.
My thoughts were that nobody would care about the adventures of his allegedly small endowment by 2010.
