Poll reveals Louisiana's hostile takeover of Jindal's image
When one goes across the nation claiming to have the answers for US energy, healthcare, calling the President of the United States incompetent, castigating Washington DC and calling for a “hostile takeover”, wouldn’t you expect that politician or elected official to be popular back home?
Wouldn’t you expect that person to be able to showcase a record of significant governmental competence?
If so, then, welcome to the “Fantasy Land of Bobby Jindal's image”. Jindal, is the part-time Louisiana chief executive. He is the face and talking head who spends his days and even nights running for the nation’s top chief-executive position.
Yet, based upon poll after poll, particularly one just-released on Tuesday, you would think that the nation will see the real person through the eyes of his own constituentcy rather than that portrait he and the rest of Team Jindal has carefully crafted.
