Louisiana voters have spoken, and they’ve sent two republicans to Congress: one will replace scandal-tainted democrat William Jefferson and the other will replace a retiring incumbent republican. Interestingly, Anh "Joseph" Cao, who beat Jefferson by three percentage points will become the first Vietnamese-American in Congress (nice to see this in the republican party).
In a year of devastating losses for republicans, these victories provide small consolation. But they may also be viewed as a positive sign for LA Governor Bobby Jindal, who may or may not be harboring national political aspirations in the near future.

Anh "Joseph" Cao
With all the problems we are facing as a party and as a nation, it's apparent that there are still too many in the Republican party who have their heads firmly buried in the sand.
