Neil Goldschmidt, former Oregon governor and current
wheeler-dealer,
who took around $1 million in consulting fees to help
keep the state workers' compensation insurance agency
out of political hot water --
fees which, when disclosed, plunged it into hotter
water than it's felt in quite a while.
Also shamelessly took a nice piece of the action on
the buyout of Portland General Electric from Enron
just after (or while) he campaigned hard as a
public-spirited citizen (cough)
to defeat a
local public power initiative.
