I’m with you, I really dig Jindal. I don’t know what left wing policies the guy above is talking about, but maybe I’m just not informed enough about his yet... but I’ve seen him interviewed at least 3-4 times and he sounds like one of the most articulate, intelligent, solidly conservative guys we have in the running for the party... I think he’d rock... Its Jindal for me too over palin, unless she really does some cramming and works on her unprepared speaking... i loved her, and think shes great, but no matter when she talked (aside from her first two public appearances) i was forced to keep my fingers crossed that she didn’t botch anything... i think with some work she could be a formidable candidate in 2012... i think a Jindal/Palin ticket would rock... or the other way around even....
“i was forced to keep my fingers crossed that she didn’t botch anything”
yeah I had that feeling before she said anything. She doesn’t need a harvard degree. She needs to be a FReeper and give you confidence that she’s knows what’s out there!
Yup....I could see Palin becoming ready for VP in four years. She knows the territory and what’s required now. Is she ready for the Presidency...NOOOO! Given her recorded gaffes, she’d have to work through the VP role to graduate to a possible Presidency. She;s a great lady, and I do admire her...but beyond canned stump speeches, she was NOT ready for primetime.
