Bobby Jindal is in a run-off with Kathleen Babineaux Blanco, whose lunch he will eat during the upcoming campaign. She is not that bright, non-charismatic, and pretty much a non-entity as far as I'm concerned. Jindal could have faced a tougher opponent, but he lost by a hair. I see big things for Bobby. If he wins the election, he will be tested as he tries to undo the Huey Long legacy that has been fatal to a state that should be in much, much better shape than it is. Jindal is not a good old boy. Dealing with a legislature full of them--black and white--will be a challenge. It will be Jindal's true test. If he succeeds, I see national things for him, including mention that he is Presidential material. I don't think his far-right positions will be a problem. I spoke last night with a local GOP doyennne who agrees with me that Jindal far-right posturings are simply calculated to get votes from Bubbas. Expect him to become more moderate after he is elected and starts to think more about his national prospects. C2@youhearditherefirst.com
