Get Ready To Rumble In 2012!

Is it too early to start talking about the 2012 presidential election? Not for political junkies like me! Bobby Jindal, governor of Louisiana, got his “campaign” off to a rousing start last night by delivering the Republican response to President Barack Obama’s address to Congress and the nation.

I thought President Obama’s speech was a forceful, confident narrative, summing up all he’s trying to do to get our broken economy back on track. It was short on details, but the point last night wasn’t to lay out a laundry list of bullet points, but to reassure the American people that he knows what he’s doing, that he understands people’s concerns, and that we need to be patient while all the pieces are put into place and given time to work.
