Jindal's response - tepid, at best

Fox Panel’s Verdict On Jindal’s Speech: ‘Childish,’ ‘Amateurish,’ ‘Not Exactly Terrific’
(Think Progress)
---
That's saying a lot if even Fox was dismissive of Jindal!
This is the repugs' great hope for 2012. He has a lot to learn before he can really challenge Obama.
Of course, Obama is such a terrific speaker that coming after him is going to be a let-down no matter what, but this really was amateurish.
And the speech basically just said that yes, the repugs f'k'd up for the last 8 years and got us into this mess, and yes, Obama has outlined all of the problems that they caused, but the repugs should still be the ones fixing all of the problems that they created.
Not exactly a winning argument.

It'll be interesting to see the repugs' spin on this, since Obama obviously is right in line with the American people and the repugs are spinning farther and farther out of relevancy.
