Who thought that an #AskBobby Jindal Twitter dialogue would be a good idea?

Someone on Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal's campaign staff had the brilliant idea of opening up a discussion between the Republican hopeful and Twitter. The result was a terrible idea, poorly executed.

The first, and possibly most important, set of questions for the candidate:

Yes -- he most certainly was. Not that people didn't have more serious questions:

[embedtweet id="615968031718535168"]

[embedtweet id="615966828800512000"]

[embedtweet id="615966412469870592"]

[embedtweet id="615965971870715905"]

[embedtweet id="615965795919765504"]

[embedtweet id="615964901819875329"]

And, of course:

As of this writing -- and perhaps not surprisingly -- Jindal has yet to reply to any questions, serious or otherwise.

UPDATE: Apparently, it wasn't a staffer who made this suggestion, but a Super PAC supporting Jindal:

Of course, that doesn't make it any better of an idea.
