Bobby Jindal

Lafayette Daily Advertiser: Jindal’s win may signal positive change

Gov.-elect Bo bby Jindal has taken to the road to thank the voters who gave him a clear victory Saturday. Before hitting the trail, he described an attitude toward the conduct of the governor’s office that may signal a unique change in Louisiana government.

Jindal is committed to erasing the state’s shabby national image. Others who have held the office of governor have expressed that commitment, but the ugly image of corruption has not gone away. If Jindal follows through on his promises, we may be approaching a time of positive change.

Jindal is positioning himself to drive that change, and his approach is unique. He says he is not interested in being popular or exciting. He simply wants to erase the current national image and will consider it a compliment “if I go down as one of the most boring but effective governors.”
…
Regardless of how you voted Saturday, we urge that you join Jindal in pushing for a new image for our state. There is cause for optimism.
