Why I like Bobby Jindal: Because he is a Republican with energy whom I do not think is a hater. I like him because he’s not some clueless old white guy, and as such might be able to avoid some of the party’s negatives. He
also understands the need for outreach and that the party must grow to survive.

Do you have anything to say in response to Reine’s points?

Honestly, the GOP could be like 500% more effective if they just admitted which of their candidates were massively flawed and didn’t promote them. Instead, you get stuck into this Stepford rut where you have to pretend over and over. I mean, we all know that you said that Romney couldn’t be trusted before you slipped over to supporting him.

How well did that work out?

It’s time to stop approaching politics to win the game, and to try to actually turn the GOP into a modern party. Minorities aren’t going to be fooled by having Jindal or another non-white on the ticket. It is the actual policies of the GOP that makes them voted against by those groups. You’ve gotta understand that.
