Dropdown list in editable table posts the index and not the text selected

I have a list of state abbreviations in a dropdownlist bound to a column in an MakeEditable datatable. When the state is selected and the user moves off of the cell, a post is made to a method on the server. The problem is when the post is made, the value is always the index of the selected item in the list and not the state abbreviation. Does anyone anyone see what I am doing wrong?

        var oTable = $('#myTable').dataTable({
