bobby jindal to run against david vitter?
Edited on Fri Jun-19-09 02:50 PM by BOSSHOG
for the gop nomination for senate in 2010 for Louisiana??? That was the chat this morning in New Orleans radio. Seems a (D) congressman, Charlie Melancon might have a better chance of beating vitter then getting reelected to the house so jindal might be a better choice to keep the Senate seat in gop hands. jindal is always running for an office other then the one he currently holds and word is his presidential aspirations may have to be put on hold. He also got a public spanking recently by four former governors cause ole bobby wants to cut funding for hire education. Its hard work constantly running for another office.

The Mayor of New Orleans will be up for grabs next year and the early frontrunner is Mitch Landrieu (brother of Mary) who is currently Lieutenant Governor. Or will he run for Governor? Always a fun time watching Louisiana politics.

1. Pathetic. A Ding-dong Vs. a Diaper-sex Freak

But on the plus side, they are both Republicon Chickenhawks -- apparently a requirement for Homelander embrace.

2. Fits perfectly with a jindal plan
because if he got the senate seat he'd no longer have to worry about state government and governing and all that stuff and as soon as he got elected to the senate (a big if) he could start running for President. The motherfucker is constantly running for something else and never doing the job he was elected to do. He spends all his time (except the time he is prohibited from doing so) outside the state raising money. I cannnot imagine him committing to doing anything for six years. Elective office is just a fucking game to him.

3. He's facing a big deficit in the state
he wants to get out of the gov's mansion soon so he can pretend he was fiscally responsible and kep himself viable as a presidential candidate in 2016

4. So Mitch may or may not run for mayor
is this an archive post from four years ago? :P If Hamlet Landrieu had only made up his mind, he would have handily beaten the incumbent dunce, who would by now be lucky to find work as a greeter at Wal-Mart. :eyes:

5. Per the all powerful chatterboxes on WWL
he'll either run for Governor or Mayor! Early polls show him the frontrunner for the Mayor's job. John Georges has also (almost) thrown his hat into the Mayoral ring.

A greeter at Wal-Mart in China?

7. The quarantine was quite a funny story
in the Big Easy. Keep him until next May when his term is up.

9. Perfect. Instead of a debate, Bobby can exorcise Vitter's demon.
If that wouldn't win him the primary, I don't know what would.
