Yeah, so Bobby Jindal, veep, my, my, now he is finally Governor of Louisiana, the Indians are

v happy.

In USA, the Indians mostly support the Republicans, at least when I was there.

OK, I am sure some support Dems, but in the communities in the South, they supported Thuglicans.

So I was not really supporting Bobby Jindal and in fact was a Kathleen Blanco supporter and she won the first time.

and bunch of commentator dweebs, I think it was these weekly standard people or some other right wing people said, it was a racist result.

How could it possibly be a racist result when 2 whitest counties voted for him, Bossier, the sister city of Shreveport, voted for him and some other county, almost totally.

Bossier is as conservative as Shreveport is liberal.

Bobby was winning when he started bragging about how totally anti abortion he was. This scared Dems silly. Also Dems already rejected a guy Milkovich, who said he was standing against abortion. He was rejected by 25% to 75% even though the Rethuglican is a watery eyed slug type.

Why do Indians support an anti abortion candidate. It is baffling.

That was not all.

Then he said Helmet laws mean a Nanny State, like there is something weird about telling people to wear helmets. OK, so maybe the Hell's Angels like that.

Then Kathleen Blanco released stuff on his record of Medicaid cuts when he was supposedly George Bush's little young health care whiz and also his record that he almost caused Grambling University to lose its accreditation.

And ya gotta understand, Grambling is the pride and joy of Louisiana.

Then finally, Bobby kicked his own self in the balls, by calling one set of so called Miscellaneous Funds, Slush funds.

Bobby mistakenly thought that Miscellaneous funds was a sneaky way for Governor's to pull wool over constituent eyes.

Keep in mind that the Governor at the time was a thuglican, Kathleen was only the candidate. But Bobby was blabbing about slush funds.

Now Miscellaneous funds was funds given to smaller counties that did not have their own tax revenue to keep roads, sewage and all.

But if ya want the State to function, ya cannot have a road or pipeline or electric line suddenly stop short at a county line becoz their own taxes dont cover it.

so in a state which has rich counties and downright poor counties, some which did not even have telephone lines well into the 2000s, ya have to find a way to pay for stuff, even if it is not strictly State Bidness.

So people in those counties, which many of them was white and poor, quickly ran and voted for Blanco in the final election.

So that is how Bobby Jindal lost that election.

Now, last thang I saw, was he was actually arguing for more Medicaid money and it was the Dem legislators who cut the funds.

People this is not a smart move, dont count on him being Indian, he is gonna tell everyone Your Stupid Ass cut the funds and if ya get ya ass kicked, it will be ya own damn stupid fault.

Louisiana medical care depends totally on charity care and Medicaid and the Medical School depends on it to keep their hospitals open, so heck do not mess with Medicaid funds just becoz ya feel like twisting the tail of the Rethuglican governor.

It is not a damn smart thang to do.

Just saying.

Think about it.
