Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal has ended a presidential campaign that never really got off the ground.
Jindal is an extremely bright man whose frequent resort to demagoguery and superficial attempts to impress social conservatives were beneath his intelligence and dignity and insulting to his intended audience. He’s better than the campaign he ran, and given that he’s especially knowledgeable on the subject of health care, he would be an excellent pick for HHS Secretary by our next Republican president.
