Bill Richardson has been
un-nominated for Secretary of Commerce. Apparently there is a grand jury investigating Richardson for improper dealings with a construction company. This now re-opens a plum spot in the upcoming Obama administration. I wonder who Obama will ask?
I heard on MSNBC that Obama has left open the possibility that Richardson would join the cabinet should he be cleared of any wrongdoing. With that in mind, I would expect Commerce to be filled with a care-taker Secretary.
ReplyDeleteWhomever the replacement nominee is, let's hope it isn't a senator. We can't afford to loose more of those.
