Slumdog Governer

http://www.cnn.com/2009/POLITICS/02/26/carville.republicans/index.html#cnnSTCTe

James Carville was a political adviser for President Bill Clinton in the 1990's and a huge supporter of Hillary Clinton's presidential bid last year. He wrote this amusing commentary for CNN. Carville Discusses Louisianan Governer "Bobby" Jindall's response to President Obama's stimulus speech. Jindall has criticized the presidents plan as wasteful spending. Jindall himself refuses to take any money from the package for his state, because it will enforce him to change the states unemployment law. I agree with Carville when he writes that expanding unemployment benefits will help boost our economy. A former Mccain economic adviser predicts that every dollar put into unemployment will put over $1.50 into our economy.
This is a bad move for Jindall and the republican party. He is criticizing a solution to our economic crisis, without supplying any possible ideas of his own.This is all a ploy to make Jindall the next superstar of the GOP. That fake southern accent really kills it for me.
