Harry Reid v The Sun Times

If Fitz is going to release more tapes, how about releasing the conversation between Harry Reid and the Guv? I don't know what criminal case that would compromise if released. Check Zorn's Harry Reid vs the Sun Times.

Both accounts can't be right. Someone here is lying, misremembering or dealing rumor and spin.

What's interesting here is that we're very likely to find out the truth sooner or later. As Reid went on to say, his conversation with Blagojevich was probably taped by federal investigators.
Sooner rather than later please. Illinoisans deserve it.

Thomas B. Edsall in HuffPo on Blagojevich Blight. Like Emerald Ash Bore, it infected Richardson and Team Obama had to cut him down.

In the case of Richardson, there are conflicting accounts as to how forthright he was with Obama aides while he was being vetted. Politico reported that Richardson failed to provide crucial information, quoting a Democratic source saying that Richardson and his supporters "were pressed for information and they gave nothing." Another source told the Huffington Post, however, that Richardson had been straightforward and open early on, but that the Blagojevich scandal raised the stakes, making allegations that Richardson had participated in a pay-to-play arrangement of his own all the more problematic.
