Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal hopes to be a best-seller.

The Republican lawmaker confirmed that he has signed a deal with Regnery Publishing to pen a book. The tome does not yet have a title, but will touch on Jindal’s biography and political philosophy, said the Governor.

Oddly, Mr. Jindal, who became the butt of jokes after his rebuttal to President Obama’s congressional speech earlier this year, insisted he won’t be spending too much of his time on the project. Rather, a co-author will do most of the "heavy-lifting:"

"One of the reasons I’m doing this with a co-author is to make sure there’s somebody else doing a lot of the heavy lifting," said Jindal, according to NOLA.com. "This isn’t something that will take a lot of my time." The governor will begin writing the book over the summer, after his legislative session has ended.
