Contempt for Holder

CBS reports that the House Oversight Committee will hold a vote next week on holding Eric Holder in contempt over his refusal to answer questions pertaining to the “Fast & Furious” gunwalking program.

From an election standpoint, I don’t see Holder being charged with contempt as having much of an effect on Obama’s re-election chances simply because the economy is such an overriding factor right now. I suspect that is why Obama has not given Holder the boot because I cannot otherwise see having him around this long after the scandal become public has been a plus for this administration unless there’s something really good going on behind the scenes that nobody knows about.
