Bill Richardson has withdrawn from being nominated as Secretary of Commerce. He is being investigated now. He is being investigated by a federal grand jury. This is because people have said that some of his political donors got contracts from the state. I am really upset by this news. Bill Richardson is such an upstanding guy and he deserves to be Secretary of Commerce. He is well qualified for the job and would really make a difference in the lives of every day Americans. It will probably take months to finish the investigation so this is why he decided to pull his name out of contention. Since this whole Rod Blagojevich scandal started the democrats need to crack down on corruption and suspect behavior. They would not be able to confirm him until the investigation was finished. There is no word about who is going to be the President Elect’s new choice for Secretary of Commerce. Hopefully, he picks someone who is very qualified and wants to be a good public servant.
