His vote won't matter here in California where Obama will win, as he pointed out, but it's dee-lish anyway.RedState co-founder Joshua Trevino writes on his blog that he can't bring himself to vote for the Republican ticket:
In the end, I couldn't do it. My California ballot arrived in the mail today, and I opened it fully intending to vote for John McCain. I filled out the state propositions first -- yes on 8, no on everything proposing a new bond or new spending -- then the local offices, straight Republican excepting Kevin Johnson for (nonpartisan) Sacramento mayor. Finally, the vote for President of the United States: an academic exercise in California, where Barack Obama will surely win by a crushing margin. But good citizenship demands voting as if it matters. Do I believe in John McCain? Not as much as I used to. Do I believe in Sarah Palin? Despite my early enthusiasm for her, now not at all. Do I believe in the national Republican Party? Not in the slightest -- even though I see no meaningful alternative to it. So, my choice for President in 2008, scrawled in my ballot as an act of futile protest, is Governor Bobby Jindal of Louisiana. If nothing else, I am confident this is the first of several votes I will cast for him in years to come.

Yum.
Bobby Jindal? Wow. Trevino has some serious issues going on - who to vote for...the exorcist the woman who was prayed over for protection from witchcraft? At least he doesn't let actual issues cloud his decision.
this should have more balls exploding
Jindal? geesh
here's a nightmare for you -- Jindal/Palin
not to worry -- if that came to pass we'd know the GOP is nothing more than an insignificant third or fourth party
what will he do in four years when the wingnuts bring her back as the to of the ticket and todd as running mate?
top of the ticket
Governor Bobby Jindal of Louisiana would make a better choice than Sarah Palin -- but then, who wouldn't?
yeah, margali. I'm starting to regret mocking him (a very little regret). Who knew what was coming at us.
Never fear. Bobby Jindal will never win in the primary. It IS the GOP.They campaign against people not like them. I don't know much about Bobby Jindal.I wonder why McCain did not pick him for VP. That would have made better sense than picking Palin. But...I am glad he picked Palin. He just about threw the job to Obama.
