Thank goodness Rory Reid Wasn't Elected Governor

If Rory Reid was elected governor of Nevada, we would be talking impeachment instead of tackling the budget right now.
From the LVRJ: Former Clark County Commissioner Rory Reid agreed to pay a $25,000 penalty from his own pocket to settle accusations he skirted campaign finance laws, under a deal the secretary of state announced Friday.
Reid was accused of funneling more than $900,000 to his gubernatorial campaign last year through dozens of shell organizations in an effort to bypass limits on political donations.
The alleged scheme was described as "conduit contributions," an illegal practice that aims to mask the true source of the money.
Reid will pay the fine with his own money and not from campaign funds.
In an interview Friday, he denied wrongdoing and said he settled to avoid years of litigation.

Umm, yeah right, Rory. You settled with using your own money to avoid years of litigation? That's BS, but on the bright side, I guess we won't be seeing Reid run for anything in the near future.
But Rory did make history: Reid's $25,000 penalty is the largest settlement involving a state political campaign in Nevada history, said one source with knowledge of past fines. However, the state prosecuted an Elko candidate and won a $40,000 judgment that has yet to be fully paid, the source said. (emphasis mine)

So, thankfully, Reid did not win the governor's election or we would be talking about impeachment.
However, if Reid did win the election, would this issue have come up in the main stream media? Would liberal reporter Jon Ralston have covered it? Somehow, I doubt it.
