Jindal making events in Las Vegas, Colorado

Gov. Bobby Jindal flew to Las Vegas on Wednesday to attend political events for U.S. Sen. Dean Heller, R-Nev.

From Nevada, Jindal later planned to travel to Denver for an event and a speaking engagement before returning to Baton Rouge on Thursday, the governor’s press office said.

Heller is seeking to hold onto the seat he received through political appointment.

In Colorado, Jindal will help U.S. Rep. Mike Coffman and speak at the Conservative Political Action Conference.

Coffman, a Republican, represents a district dramatically changed by redistricting.

What a joke this governor has become! We have a fiscal crises going on right here in this state, and he's traveling to campaign for somebody else??? How many more years of this do we have to endure?

With all his traveling out of state, does he still meet Louisiana residency requirements to be governor?

Jindal preaching his true religion: Republicanism. Good thing there is no important business to be done here in Louisiana. Question: who pays for him to go and campaign for other people?
