A CARRIER politian? What on EARTH is that.

A carrier is a large ship that holds and launches airplanes.

No telling what a ‘politian’ might be. Sounds vaguely like a flavor of icecream.

Perhaps you mean a CAREER POLITICIAN.

A) Those issues that Mr. Sabludowsky brought up on Bayou Buzz. B) How many people own the LLC's that have donated to the Jindal campaign (who also made individual contributions). C) Jindal's commercial with the Sheriff that was produced with Federal campaign funds and was still used in the election for Governor. It is a violation of state law to use FEC regulated funds on a Louisiana race. So, is using something produced with federal funds in a state race also a violation? I am unsure. But the thing about C, and about many other Jindal decisions, is that as someone who pushes for ethics reform he doesn't act very ethical. If someone wanted to give the notion that he is ethical, he would stay as far away as possible from violating the law. However, it seems that the Jindal campaign tries to stretch the law to the point where it almost but doesn't yet break. There are three issues that the Louisiana ethics board shoudl take a look at.

What a crock of *&%$ that thing is. What I find frustrating is just what a free pass Jindal is given by the media. They handle him with kid gloves that would make George Bush jealous. And btw, what ever happened with that questionable campaign expense Sabludowsky talked about? Did anyone ever follow up on that?

I mean, if they had to make a choice between a poor candidate with good ideas or a rich candidate with poor ideas, I would tend to think that the T-P (Generic or Name Brand) would go for the money instead of the ideas. Show me the last time they endorsed a candidate with no money and good ideas. Tony: Money definitely has a lot to do with the endorsement process.

They interviewed folks for the endorsement however I got the feeling sitting there it was a formality. Clancy is no fool. I'm willing to bet most of his advertisers are Republican. He had no choice. I certainly can't afford the rates to advertise! Gambit Weakly. They interviewed folks for the endorsement however I got the feeling sitting there it was a formality. Clancy is no fool.

Simply put, Jindal has been hijacked by forces greater than he.

I think that says it all. But lets look at what else Mr. Alford has to say.

 Powerful men and women, many of whom will be seeking government contracts or influence in the future, have invested in Jindal’s campaign.

Why Clancy Dubos can’t see this simple fact is beyond me.

Here are five ways that Jindal’s campaign has transformed a once open and accessible politician into a carefully scripted hologram whose message has done more to dumb down the electorate (and the campaign) than lift it up:

This guy is great, and his talents are wasted at the Generic T-P/Gambit Weakly.

But the truth is, he has never stopped running for governor since he lost to Blanco in November 2003. His three years in Congress represent the longest stretch he has spent at a job since he graduated from college.

I couldn’t have said it better myself.
