You may recall in an earlier post, Ned pointed out that "Bobby" Jindal, Governor of Louisiana, had been refusing to exercise his responsibility to do everything he could to spare his state from oil damage, preferring to let damages pile up on BP and the Obama administration. Now there's more on this subject, and Ned's suspicions have been confirmed by CBS News and the NYT. For a summary, see http://www.washingtonmonthly.com/archives/individual/2010_06/024455.php.
Readers may recall Jindal, who named himself Bobby to ingratiate himself with redneck voters in Louisiana, gave a "response" to an Obama speech, and did an ineffectual, deer-in-the-headlights mess of it. That seemed to finish his aspirations for national office, but it seems the accident has given him a second wind.
More on this story as it develops.
