Right now the Republicans don't really have a leader. There isn't one person who really stands out ideologically from the pack, no one who inspires people. That is good for the Democrats, they can say, "see, the Republicans don't have a leader, what do they even stand for?" So, when any Republican kind of stands out from the crowd, be it Palin or Jindal, they (and the liberal media) jump on them like a pack of wolves. If they can beat them down and scare them off, all the better for the Democrats.
