#2 Nope. Let him finish the job, then run for Pres. Perhaps after a stint as Sec Def.

#3 I like Bobby, but don't oversell him. He's playing an unusually strong hand - following a pair of administrative incompetents, carrying a budget surplus (oil revenues), and overseeing economic activity primed with lots of Federal Katrina & Rita recovery funds. He does seem to have administrative skills but his political skills have really not been tested yet.

#4 His political skills have been tested plenty: he's won (and lost) as a Republican in a deeply Democratic and corrupt state. He's doing well for himself.

I do agree that he should finish what he's started in Louisiana before moving on. A term or two as governor and then let's see. He's young and he doesn't want to make the mistake Obama has made.

#5 If he can turn around Louisiana after decades of Democrat corruption and incompetence, than he assuredly deserves a place on the national stage. But first, lets see some results.

#6 Since when is spending $1.1 billion an accomplishment? Show me someone who can have $1.1 billion and *not* spend it, and he (sorry, but it probably wouldn't be a she) will have my vote.

#8 Ahem.

I believe the majority of Congresscritters (as well as State gummintcritters) are MALE, Iblis. And they aren't able to hold onto one thin dime of the billions they confiscate from us.

Just sayin'.
