Bobby Jindal is not just unpopular, he’s WILDLY unpopular, with just 28% of Louisiana voters saying they approve of his performance in office, as opposed to 59% who say they disapprove. So, What happened to Bobby Jindal? For starters, “Deep budget cuts, particularly to health care and education spending, have been unpopular.” Which, by the way, is EXACTLY what Ken Cuccinelli would have to do if he (god forbid) became Virginia governor and slashed taxes for rich people and corporations with no way to replace the lost revenues. In addition, “Jindal has held firm in his opposition to a federally-funded Medicaid expansion – an unpopular position, according to a Southern Media Opinion & Research poll.” Sound familiar? Yep, Cuccinelli opposes the federally-funded Medicaid expansion too. Can we say “two peas in a pod?”
P.S. Planned Parenthood weighs in, says:
…[Jindal] opposes all abortion, even in the cases of rape, incest, or the life of the woman. In fact he went so far as to compare women seeking abortions to “criminals” – and has signed a number of laws, including a stringent mandatory ultrasound law, to make it more difficult for a woman to access a safe and legal abortion. Jindal is also opposed to the Affordable Care Act’s birth control benefit that makes this basic preventive care more affordable and accessible for women.
