What the GOP can learn from Bobby Jindal

"Leadership." It's not a four-letter word. 

National Journal's Josh Kraushaar explains why:

Those Crazy Racist Southern Republicans Did It Again!

In case you missed it, Bobby Jindal, the Republican Governor of Louisiana, was reelected last night.


"Landslide" hardly begins to cover it - Jindal captured 66% of the vote and his nearest competitor only 18%, plus eight other candidates with 5% or less. Full election results available here.

Video from Friday's rally with Bobby Jindal, Rick Scott, and Jennifer Carroll

For those of you who couldn't make it out to the Orlando Executive Airport on Friday, here's some video of the speeches:

YouTube | Rick Scott's Speech

It was a great event, and I was so excited to get to meet Bobby Jindal.  He is very sincere in person.  Jindal got a very warm and enthusiastic reception here in Orlando, and I heard a lot of people telling him they were proud of how hard he was working for the people of Louisiana, dealing with all the challenges they've faced in the past few years, and you could see on Jindal's face that he truly appreciated the comments.

...still looking for the stupid cord for my camera to download my pictures.from the event.  Will post them when I find it!  And, good news, my new Blackberry is supposed to come in the mail next week, so I'll be able to upload pictures easier again. 

Bobby Jindal

...is a rock star. The camera on my blackberry picked a lousy day to stop working but I have my regular camera with me and will download the pictures later. I think the video is getting put on youtube and will post that link when I get it for y'all too. 

This is a fantastic event, the crowd is really fired up and excited for Rick Scott and Jennifer Carroll. 

OK Jacksonville...they're heading your way!

Reminder! Come meet Bobby Jindal, Rick Scott, and Jennifer Carroll today!

Don't forget this exciting event today...Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal, and Florida candidates for Gov. and Lt. Gov., Rick Scott and Jennifer Carroll. 

TODAY AT 3 PM, at the Orlando Executive Airport.  Details available here.

I'll be there...will you?

Come see Bobby Jindal, Rick Scott and Jennifer Carroll on Friday!

Showalter Flying Service

Orlando Executive Airport

436 Rickenbacker Drive

Orlando, FL 32803

(Just South of intersection of Colonial & Rickenbacker)

Please RSVP to Anne@RickScottForFlorida.com with "RSVP" in the subject line.  Also, note that there was some confusion yesterday about this event...I've confirmed directly with the campaign, it is at the Showalter Flying Service at the Executive Airport (not the Showalter Field in Winter Park)

Here's the official event flyer with all the details (click to enlarge):

Hope you can join us on Friday!

Also, I've added a new feature to Sunshine State Sarah...an "Events" tab at the top of the page.  I get a lot of invitations to events and can't go to everything, but maybe I can share something that you might like to attend.  If you are organizing an event for a Republican candidate or conservative group, feel free to send it to me.  I can't promise I can post everything (I'm getting an insane amount of email lately) but I will try.

Thanks, hope y'all have a great week!  And make sure to come on out on Friday!
