Update: Jeremy Alford in this week's Gambit :
A growing number of lawmakers say privately that Jindal plays the part of the Roman general a little too well, treating lawmakers as plebeians while seeking greater glory for himself. Even with an odd coalition of Democrats and Republican committee chairs protecting his flank, the governor would be well-advised to learn from Caesar — and watch his back.Sounds kind of circus-y to me. Jindal is damaged but he may still have the juice to wreck the tax system.
