Another bit of good news for Louisiana and Bobby Jindal.
.... a recent Portfolio.com analysis of how all 50 states and the District of Columbia fared during the recession, Louisiana ranked second best with an overall economic index of 7.298.
Stack that on top of this, from the Bayou Buzz:
Louisiana's position has improved across a variety of national business climate rankings over the last two years, including Forbes.com's Best States for Business, Small Business and Entrepreneurship Council's Business Tax Index and Small Business Survival Index, Beacon Hill Institute's State Competitiveness Report, Pacific Research Institute's Economic Freedom Index, CNBC's America's Top States for Business, Kauffman's State New Economy Index and State Policy Reports' Index of Economic Momentum.
