Replacements waiting in wings as Renzi (R-AZ) ponders resignation

Embattled Arizona Republican Congressman Rick Renzi may resign from office in the wake of a federal investigation into his involvement in land-swap deal and an FBI raid on an Arizona insurance business owned by his wife.

Renzi told The Hill newspaper in Washington, D.C., this week that he was considering stepping down.

Democrats are looking to oust Renzi and some top Republicans in the state, who asked not be identified, are talking about the possibly of Renzi's resignation.

The Hill also reported that the federal inquiry is focused on possible nondisclosure of a $200,000 payment made to Renzi by a business partner involved in the land swap. The Wall Street Journal reports that a grand jury has been convened in Tucson to look into Renzi's actions.

trying to entrap the Clintons in a real estate deal they had nothing to do with, while you haven't heard a peep out of them about this real life fraud.

about Harry Reid's land deal

And another seat for the Dems next election!

If someone like this jerk Renzi is about to resign, it is for his own personal benefit. He is likely about to be indicted and needs to devote his time to his upcoming legal case.
