More ‘O’drama with associations (updated, bumped)

Gov. Bill Richardson, Obama’s choice for Secretary of Commerce, MIGHT be caught up in his own pay-for-play scandal.  It appears that a company that has already been caught up in the financial scandal in Birmingham, AL is being looked at for work done on the 2004 Democrat Convention.  Richardson chaired the committee in charge of running the convention that year, and investigators found that the company’s president also donated to Richardson’s PAC.  A grand jury has been empanelled in New Mexico to look into this.

The list keeps growing.  I should set up a betting site for who’s next.

Update: A local NM news station tried to ask Richardson some questions, to no avail.  He just about ran out of the room where a news conference was taking place.  The story also has some background on the CDR association. (H/T: The Weekly Standard)
