Jindal starting his run for 2016

So a few days ago, Gov. Jindal attacked the Republican party for being the "Party of Stupid".

Today he attacks Romney for claiming that President Obama gave "gifts" to the 47% to win the election.

Clearly he is seeking the national stage to set up a run for president in 2016. My question, as a Republican or a Democrat?

A Clintonian Republican? Pro business, yet compassionate. Playing for the moderate vote. I don't know if Jindal has the charisma to win.

Romney and McCain were the most liberal of the GOP choices.

And apparently still too conservative for the majority of Americans. That should tell you something about how well a far right wing message will resonate with the electorate. Actually, if the GOP stuck to fiscal conservatism, and moderated their view on social issues, they would do a lot better nationally. The extreme social conservative message only works well in some select states.

Wow... Now all he has to do is figure out how to hide the fact that he's screwing the poor in his own state; encouraging the destruction of the ecosystems and economy of his own state by sucking at the energy-company trough; and willing to spend public money supporting the morons who think it's okay to spend public money on religious institutions that teach creationism....

But hey, he wants the GOTP to "come to its senses....."

But after four more years of Obamanomics, record debt, tens of millions on food stamps, etc, a little conservatism might start to look very good.
