Posted on | March 12, 2012 | 2 Comments

A congressman under investigation for insider trading? Suspected of enriching himself in office? Say it ain’t so, Spencer Bachus!

The New York Times reports:

In Alabama, Representative Spencer Bachus, chairman of the House Financial Services Committee, is squaring off against State Senator Scott Beason, an architect of Alabama’s tough illegal immigration bill, who is running as the “true conservative” in the race. But two other challengers are also in the race, and Mr. Beason has to hold Mr. Bachus, a much better-funded House veteran, to below 50 percent of the vote to force a runoff April 24.
