Separated at birth?

I crashed really early last night, and ended up listening to the president's speech and the GOP response.

I prefer listening to speeches versus watching them on TV. I don't know why.

I can't say that my way is better. When I listened to Jindal, all I could hear was this man.

You know, you have a point. Jindal really needs to work on his delivery.

He also needs to get a shirt and jacket that fits properly.

I heard some clips today and I was like...it's an INFOMERCIAL...yikes!

I think Jindal just needs some time. Let's see how his tenure in LA works out. He's been in office all of a year, right?

I can see why the GOP likes him. He's taken control of a state run corruptly by democrats, and by all accounts, he's doing a good job and turning things around.

He needs to turn his Indian gentleness (something I consider an asset) into a strength (like Obama's steady demeanor). Right now, comes off as if he's addressing little kids in a school circle.

The guy is smart and well educated, which is a vast improvement over others the GOP has offered up recently as their next best hope.

If he can tame LA that will say a lot for him. What was the deal trying to look like the president walking into the east room ? That was lame.

I didn't see it, but I read the news accounts of how Chris Matthews (I can't stand him) reacted to that moment.

I would rather Jindal find his own voice and see where it leads, than that he become the voice of a discredited party.
