More fun from Obama and the Dems "change" baby..

Bill Richardson reportedly has withdrawn as the commerce secretary-designate in the face of a federal grand jury investigation into whether the former presidential candidate exchanged government contracts for campaign contributions.

NBC News on Sunday reported that Richardson, who is the governor of New Mexico, denies any wrongdoing but the investigation won't be finished before he has to go to Senate confirmation hearings.

"Let me say unequivocally that I and my administration have acted properly in all matters and that this investigation will bear out that fact," Richardson told NBC News. "But I have concluded that the ongoing investigation also would have forced an untenable delay in the confirmation process."

Obama also told NBC he accepted Richardson's decision to withdraw with "deep regret."

"Governor Richardson is an outstanding public servant and would have brought to the job of Commerce Secretary and our economic team great insights accumulated through an extraordinary career in federal and state office," Obama said.

Did anyone really think that electing a Democrat or a Republican would result in change?

Yeah, but at least the Republican tells you up front.
