Haha! this is priceless. I don't know much details about that part of the politics there, I just know the name and few of the biggest gaffes/jokes about the lady. But I liked the "sound" of the word.

(offtopic: I am looking for a Chinese martial arts movie which is about 30-40 years old, and the main character is an old fugitive, about 50, nicknamed "the dromedary", or it may be "the camel", just translated wrong to Romanian, because in our language, first is a masculine noun, the second is a feminine noun. Kinda Harrison Ford's Fugitive, but more fighting, does anybody know this movie?).

Pickles may be gherkins but what about jindals?

[URL="https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/post-politics/wp/2015/11/17/jindal-suspends-presidential-campaign/"]Jindal suspends presidential campaign: ‘This is not my time’[/URL]
[QUOTE]Jindal's combative tactics were on full display at what became his final debate appearance: last Tuesday's undercard debate in Milwaukee. Joined for the first time by New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie and former Arkansas governor Mike Huckabee, Jindal ripped into both of them as "big government" Republicans who'd never cut spending.

"If politicians say they're going to be conservative, they say they're going to cut spending, but they don't do it, why should we send them to D.C.?" Jindal asked.

Jindal's performance visibly irritated both of his rivals, but it got the kind of result he might have been looking for: A swarm of reporters followed him into the post-debate spin room, where he repeated his attacks. "Tonight, you saw the beginning of a very important debate," Jindal insisted. "Are we going to be big government Republicans, or are we going to be conservative Republicans?"

For Jindal, that "debate" ended seven days later.[/QUOTE]
