WDSU reporter Travers Mackel sat down with the governor Friday morning. He said Jindal realizes his approval ratings are low, but doesn't seem to be fazed by it. The governor said he's made good decisions despite what critics, political pundits and voters have said about his term in office.

When Jindal took office in January 2008, he was the nation's first Indian-American governor and the youngest governor in the country. He also inherited an almost billion dollar budget surplus that has now evaporated.

The state's budget is balanced, but the deficit is running well into the hundreds of millions and some believe Jindal is to blame.

Go read the rest if you want.  I stopped at "some believe" because.. wank.
