Please, please, please reject federal stimulus funding; we'll get to find out if someone who rejects federal money can get elected dogcatcher in Baton Rouge.
Yours truly,
Rob
Jindal is far too smart to actually reject the funding (like Alaska and so many other red states, Louisiana is utterly dependent on the federal government its leaders purport to despise), but I suspect he'll pay a local political price even if the legislature overrides. What this nonsense reveals is a pretty straightforward list of the Republican governors who have Presidential ambition; any governor who supported the stimulus would come under severe attack during the 2012 primary.
