A close race when it could have been a shut-out.
Highest unemployment.
Poorly administered wars.
Sinking economy.
Ridiculous Foreign Policy.
And they couldn't beat O...goes to show what social perks do for the masses...gives one 4 more years.
Jindal , Nikki Hayley ... freaks and jokes being paraded around to show that the republicans are an inclusive party to minorities but they would never be elected on the national stage

so you saying jindal was electable as a demo cat?
[/quote] Definitely not, on what he stands for
to be honest about Jindal and not as hard as I have been!
Jindal is in the right place at the right time...when population configuration makes it possible for men and women of colour to be consistently elected to high office in america.
but by ideology and program, his personal make up and lack of high political skills and charisma makes Jindal a daunting electoral prospect on the american national stage.
I am convinced that if Jindal had what took, lets say the personality and charisma of the Pizza man for example, the Repugs would put him easily in this day and age.
Obama is lucky that the Repugs under Zionists direction put up Romney instead of Ron Paul. white or not Paul would have beaten Obama out of the water on the parts of his political program that attacks the financial oligarchy ruling america. that is closer to what americans actually want.
but if its Romney then most in the cities would go for Obama and defeat the countryside.
Jindal would first have to overcome his own personal political difficulties..then a programmatic change to fal in line with a section of the population larger enough to assure him victory.
thats impossible for Jindal. he is embedded wholly in what he has demonstrated all along. he cant get out. he is louisiana repug..country....period

Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal hurled harsh criticism at his own party after the GOP was blindsided in the 2012 elections, telling Republicans to end "dumbed-down conservatism" by putting a stop to "offensive, bizarre" comments.
“It is no secret we had a number of Republicans damage our brand this year with offensive, bizarre comments -- enough of that,†Jindal told Politico. “It’s not going to be the last time anyone says something stupid within our party, but it can’t be tolerated within our party. We’ve also had enough of this dumbed-down conservatism. We need to stop being simplistic, we need to trust the intelligence of the American people and we need to stop insulting the intelligence of the voters.â€
Jindal told Politico Republicans should “stop being the stupid party†by working to embrace a larger group of constituents rather than becoming the party of "big anything."
The GOP governor criticized the idea that the GOP is "the party that simply protects the rich." Jindal even took a jab at Mitt Romney's now-infamous "47 percent" remarks, noting Republicans would have to be more inclusive going forward.
