Jindal could soon end presidential run, website predicts

I have been wondering which GOP candidate will be the next to go. The latest prediction is that Jindal is next http://www.nola.com/politics/index.ssf/2015/09/jindal_pataki_to_drop_presiden.html?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter

Iowa political insiders say Gov. Bobby Jindal will soon give up on his presidential bid, Politico reports.

"He's become desperate," an Iowa Republican told the website. "He's taken to attacking Trump (we know how that worked out for Perry and Walker) and has nothing going on here in Iowa."

Another insider said Jindal had too much competition on "the hard inside right lane." In the last year in Louisiana, the governor has taken a strict conservative stance on taxes and education.

Like Walker, Jindal has a very bad record to run on. It is hard to ask for a promotion when you failed at your last job and Jindal has really screwed up the finances of his state.
