Click here for Frank Rich's column on President Obama's speech to a joint session of Congress and his comments on Louisiana Governor Jindal's Republican response, including:
"If you're baffled why the G.O.P. would thrust Jindal into prime time, the answer is desperation. Eager to update its image without changing its antidiluvian (or antebellum) substance, the party is trying to lock down its white country-club blowhards. The only other nonwhite face on tap, alas, is the unguided missile Michael Steele, its new national chairman. Steele has of late been busy promising to revive his party with an 'off-the-hook' hip-hop P.R. campaign, presumably with the perenially tan House leader John Boehner leading the posse."
