The more that things change, the more they stay the same. Bobby Jindal said that he wasn’t going to be involved in the election of officers to preside over the House and Senate unless there was a stalemate.

We saw that not to be true in the case of the Senate President (See below “Reform and Change”). Now this. (See story here.)

Note this comment:

…[A]n endorsement [by Jindal] expected to put on lock on the position for the West Bank lawmaker.

Is an endorsement not being involved in selection of the Speaker? Where’s the stalemate?

The Jindal Administration may be different, but I fail to see the change.

I look forward to a joint press conference between the governor-elect’s office and the lege leadership to announce the independence of the lege in the Jindal Administration. That is, provided Gov-Elect Jindal allows it.
