The
Indian Express reports
on February 21st that "Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal has announced that he will decline stimulus money specifically targeted at expanding state unemployment insurance coverage, becoming the first state executive to officially refuse any part of the federal government’s payout to states."
Will this hurt or help Jindal's political clout in Louisiana and his channces of running for President in 2012?

I think up to this point he has not been hurt by his denial of the stimulus money or any of his other absurd stances on things such as supporting intelligent design and opposing same-sex marriage. He has enjoyed quite high public approval ratings. In fact, in 2008 he had one of the highest ratings of
any governor in the country.
Now, in a column in Newsweek, there is speculation that he may even be tapped as veep because of what "brownness" and conservatives sensibilities. I guess we'll just have to see what happens, but he doesn't seem to be hurting so far.
