re: David Vitter to run for governor

What you need to understand is that Vitter lives for one thing and one thing only, himself. He puts party principle, and everything else aside in the interest of himself. He has no allies and burns bridges wherever he goes. Also, him and Jindal hate each other (hence his endorsement of Nungesser).
I kind of respect Vitter, in a way, for that. At least he doesn't pretend to care, like Jindal, when he really doesn't. Jindal is the king of "reforms" that really don't do anything tangible but check off a box for his national electability (see Vouchers, Ethics reforms, replacing the income tax, mary jane legalization, ect. All give the illusion of great reform without really fixing anything). Vitter doesn't give a shite, doesn't pretend to give a shite, and is almost respectable in that.
