Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal is currently in 14th place of the 15 Republican candidates in the RealClearPolitics average of presidential polls. He wasn’t in the Fox News primetime debate on Aug. 6, and he’s a lock not to make the CNN primetime debate on Sept. 16.

But something could be happening for Jindal in the first-voting state of Iowa. A new poll by the Des Moines Register has him at 2 percent — nothing special there, although that is technically tied for seventh in the big field. Still, Jindal’s favorable ratings are up dramatically, indicating he could be starting to move.
