Anyone wanna dis on Governor Blanco at this point?
The whole knock on KBB (including me) was that she had all these great ideas, but her answer on how to accomplish anything was either to "form a committee" or to "study it". Across the stage you have Bobby Jindal who comes off as a know-it-all to some, but had specific answers to specific questions and could undoubtedly articulate his vision much better than KBB.
Blanco had unprecedented tourism numbers to back her up and was well-known as a saleswoman for the state. Jindal had the state health system balanced and working like it was supposed to (even if he did step on some toes with his cuts) and was the GOP's golden boy, advancing up to Washington to further the conservative cause.
I feel now as I did then: Ewing was better than both, but any of them was an improvement over the last three decades of governors...
