Bobby Jindal
The pitchLouisiana Governor Jindal, 36, would certainly offer balance to McCain's age, and as only the second Indian-American to serve in Congress he brings diversity to a ticket facing off against either Clinton or Obama. Jindal is no lightweight in conservative circles, either, with Rush Limbaugh describing him as "the next Ronald Reagan."
The downside
During his first unsuccessful gubernatorial campaign, Jindal lost many conservative parishes in the primaries. His age and, consequently, lack of experience could also emerge as weaknesses.
