The South used to be the most influential political region in the country. Not no more. We're now pretty much where New England has been for the past generation.
I'd say this makes the possibility of a Jindal run in 2012 pretty certain. He's surely the best hope the GOP has of reversing the geographical tide anytime soon.

Jindal is the next republican president. Whenever that happens. he will be a great president.
"Obama is forthright and articulate, and actually seems to have a vision for America. What a change that will be! I don't agree with all of his viewpoints, but I appreciate his intellect and his interest in hearing all sides of an issue."
Dagummit, and I thot the kool-aid done all runned out at election time.
Anybody on any side forecasting the next presidential election based on media buzz ONE WEEK after the last one seems beyond pointless. Could anyone have predicted anything about this year in November 2004 with better than random success? Given that Obama wasn't even in the Senate yet, I hardly think so.
Bobby Jindal is a devout, practicing orthodox Roman Catholic. At the present time that is enough to keep him from being elected to national office. This is for better or for worse. He is not like Joe Biden or John Kennedy who are/were more nominal or at best "Sunday" Catholics.
One thing that can be predicted, an all democrat government will hurt us well past 2012.
