(NOTE: I will delete this post, retract, and issue a semi-sincere apology when evidence appears that Scott intended all along to moonlight with his old firm because he could not survive on the measly wages afforded SoS by Colorado's taxpayers.)
So it seems like newly elected Secretary of State and Tea Party Golden Boy Scott Gessler is being advised to pursue his blatant conflict of interest while at the same time getting a poverty pleading from the Independence Institute and saying that he was always going to have to moonlight at this old firm. Being the incompetent brilliant lawyer he is he just forgot to leave any evidence of that claim.
Let's roll the video:

My Mom is where I learned about public service. For 17 years she was a County Commissioner in the second largest county in Michigan by population. During that time she had opportunities to run for higher office, but stayed where she was because she though it was the highest level of public office where one could see the affect of the work one was doing.
It wasn't always an easy row to hoe. Being that it was Michigan there was always a problem with finding enough money in the budgets to fill all the priorities. There were times when she did what she thought was right, even though people complained. When she set up two health clinic where teens could get condoms without shame or hassle (in the '80's) there was a lot of out cry. Still Mom knew that with the 17% teen pregnancy rate in her district something had to be done.
