Jindal is clearly the republican's version of Barack Obama. I think he would add excitement to the republican ticket and he is a bright young man. Thats the only person that would even have a chance at beating Obama in 2012. But Obama will sill likely win re-election if things go his way over the next 4 years.
Will the GOP have to put either a woman or a minority on the ticket to avoid looking like "good old boys???"
If Obama does an exceptional job over the next four years, the only way the republicans can compete is by having a republican nominee thats young, charasmatic and has fresh conservative ideas for the republican party.
I admit that I don't know much about Jindel's policies. What are some of his "fresh conservative ideas" that you speak of?
I thought Democrats didn't like the electoral map after Messiah "Gore" lost in 2000...
Is Messiah really the best insult anyone can come up with now? It's getting weak in reference to Obama, now you're going to try to spread it around to Gore? LOL That's pretty sad.
To OP: I actually really like Jindal, I'd like to see what he could do in 2016, though. Anyone they run in 2012 will just a be a throw away candidate.

2016 will be the year that Hillary will be the democratic nominee. We could see a Hillary vs Palin match up which would guarantee a woman president.
One downside that hurt Jindal is that fact that at one time he was Hindu He actually wrote in an article: "I considered myself anti-Christian". That could come back and haunt Jindal in a presidential campaign. Bobby's first name is really Piyush but he adopted the name Bobby from the Brady Bunch.

Being that he is not a democrat or a liberal, that WILL come to haunt him in a way Wright, Ayers and Rezco never could hurt Obama.
Will the media chauffeur be waiting for Jindal like they did for Obama because he is a new, fresh face and *cough* a MiNoRiTy??? Nope, because he's not liberal.
Nah, he'll just step aside and retire from politics.
