Jindal didn’t come across as presidential. Liked his message, but lacked any presence. 2012 is a long way, and he’ll learn from this experience. I wouldn’t worry about it too much.
I recall that Bill Clinton had a disasterous speech during a convention in front of a national audience. He still became president.
I’d like to see as many conservatives as possible echoing conservative principles. The more the merrier. Hopefully someone will catch fire by the time 2011 comes around.

as I said, I like Gov. Jindal
Compared to what? The Commander in Chief?
