JBE had ZERO to do with what happened last November. He had not even been elected governor when most of this fiasco was going on. It was Jindal and his minions on the BOS and in the state legislature that put all the pressure on Alexander.

I am not a JBE fan and certainly didn't vote for him, but blaming him for Jindal's arrogance is, in the very least, uninformed. Bobby thought it would look bad for his presidential campaign. This was about short term poltical optics...nothing more. Yes, Jindal and Les we're buddies, but if it would have gotten Jindal in the Whitehouse, Bobby would have personally fired him.
