From Business Report:
Politico magazine says Gov. Bobby Jindal will be the headlining speaker at the National Republican Congressional Committee’s March fundraising dinner.
For the past eight years, former President George W. Bush was the main speaker at the event, which raises money for GOP Congressional candidates. NRCC officials say Jindal was picked because he's a "rising star" and part of the "new generation of leadership in our party."
Although Jindal says his main focus is on running for re-election in 2011, he's been seen as a possible presidential candidate in 2012.
