No, Bobby has it right: "I disagree with this president's policies, but instead of talking about impeachment, let's get out there and let's have a legitimate debate, let's fight his policies, let's try to repeal Obamacare, let's try to promote school choice, let's fight against more government spending."
Republicans, if you want to win in 2016, you're going to have to get some of the votes that went to Obama. And the way to do that is not going to be with any of the hard-line right-wingers like Newt, Santorum, or any of those other clowns. You're going to have to nominate somebody that's a little more on the moderate side, and you could do a whole lot worse than Bobby Jindal. Out of all the Republican names being batted around, he's the one that would get the most Obama voters, IMHO.
