Bizarre

Whoever thought we'd be living in a world where Mary Landrieu's go-to play in a re-election campaign would be to publicly beat up on Bobby Jindal.

Fifty-six percent of the voters interviewed said Landrieu’s backing of the president’s health-care reform law made them less likely to back her. On the other hand, opinion on her criticism of Jindal’s staunch refusal to accept federal money to expand Medicaid coverage, a key component of the law deemed optional by the U.S. Supreme Court, was evenly split. By all appearances, Landrieu thinks this is a winning issue for her, and she’ll surely continue to hammer Republicans on their resistance to covering more Louisiana residents.
