Obviously I disagree with Jindal on alot of the issues, but at least he's got a grasp on them. Sarah Palin is a moron, and if anything she was directly responsible for the election being such a blowout. Palin made a joke out of McCain's campaign, just as if Obama appointed Dennis Kucinich as his VP his campaign would have gone downhill.

A new generation is starting to go the polls, and Republicans have to accept that they are going to be more progressive and more left leaning that the past generations. They have to adjust to that, and I have no doubt they will.
Bobby Jindal is incredible. He is definitely a rising star in the Republican Party. But, he is not a "more progressive and more left leaning" person. As a matter of fact, a Bobby Jindal/Sarah Palin ticket would be great. Condi Rice might surprise next time as well.

But, I also expect Newt Gingrich to be back in the race. And, if he runs, he will win the primary and be the candidate. And, he is definitely not a "more progressive and more left leaning" candidate.
