Jeremy Alford: A ray of light at the Gambit Weakly

Over at Jindalisbad.com, I commented on Jeremy Alford is not drinking the Gambit Kool Aid and how he was actually able to look at the governors race in an objective manner. (I also explained why I refer to it as the Gambit Weakly). He continues his rational view on our Governor Elect in a new Gambit Weakly article.

Bobby Jindal’s honeymoon with the media is over already. His promises of ethical fastidiousness and rapid reform have set the bar so high that every hiccup is major news.

I have a feeling that by June, his honeymoon with the voters will be over as well. Sure, there will always be the die hard blind Jindal supporters who worship him like a god. However, I think those moderates and some Democrats who could ignore Jindal’s social conservatism and who just wanted to believe that the Rhodes Scholar was truely a breath of fresh are are going to be in for a shock when the goods delivered do not live up to the goods promised in the campaign. Buyers remorse will be the word of the day and at that point I will have to design a “We Told You So” t-shirt for Jindalisbad.com.

Until then, we will at least have some quality reporting in the Gamibt Weakly. 

And a thanks to swampwoman for linking to the story.
