Are you familiar with Louisiana politics? Have there been
many republican governors there lately? I believe Jindal
made a huge leap in Louisiana to get elected as a governor
on 2nd try. On his first run, I recall the dimocrats had lot of negative attacks on Jindal based on his skin color. But
to the credit of LA voters, they recognized the extra-ordinary
qualities in candidate Jindal and elected him.
“Are you familiar with Louisiana politics?”
No, outside of the fact that they are said to be rather corrupt. Did he run against Blanco on the second try or someone else?
“...negative attacks on Jindal based on his skin color.”
Wouldn’t that backfire due to the black vote?
