Louisiana Voter Cognative Dissonance Challenge

At the end of his Lens column on Friday, Mark Moseley draws the following seemingly logical conclusion about Bobby Jindal's potential reelection paraphernalia.

One thing’s for sure. We won’t be seeing a preponderance of those purple and gold “Tigers for Jindal” bumper stickers for the re-election campaign, like we did during Jindal’s campaign in 2007. I think the imagery might be decidedly less pleasant this time around.


Wanna bet? If we've learned anything about modern political messaging it's that you can never go wrong when your rhetoric and imagery strongly implies the opposite of the affect of your actual policy. Keep an eye out for more bumper stickers.
