It doesn't matter what we think, but the rest of the country that was watching as well. He and the GOP did themselves no favors by being so poorly prepared.
Listen, I have no problem with Jindal and think that he's indeed the real deal, just like Governor Palin. But, Palin would eat him alive in a debate based on sheer charisma, just like she did Joe Biden, who didn't know what hit him.
Why not just run Arnold. He’s super charismatic. Who needs solutions when a good speech fixes everything.
“It doesn’t matter what we think, but the rest of the country that was watching as well. He and the GOP did themselves no favors by being so poorly prepared.”
Look, the people swayed by style over substance will not be won over if even Reagan Redux were to hit one out of the park.... they are by definition Obama voters. You cant compete on style, period.
Only the 2x4 of a bad economy making them lose their jobs and terrorists freed to come and kill US citizens again will be enough to make such shallow people come around.
Jindhal made the right points. The speech as read (I didnt watch it) is the right speech. If his delivery was off, BFD, we Republicans have time to repeat the message. It’s individual responsibility vs Washington-has-all-the-answers. People ‘get it’.
When the rest of the country is paying $8.00 gas in 2 years, they won’t care.
BTW, right now would be a great time to go long RBOB futures.
