Questions on Assemblyman Mike Duvall scandal

The most interesting part of the scandal involving former Assemblyman Mike Duvall, R-Yorba Linda, could be about it surfaced publicly. The comments come near the end of a tape of an Appropriations Committee hearing July.

So many blogs as well as the Orange County Register are  wondering gave the tape or tipped off the OC Weekly and Channel 9, which broke the story. It appears to be the talk of Sacramento although no one is speaking on the record to this reporter.

Still, it's being highly discussed on the web.

The Register, http://totalbuzz.freedomblogging.com/2009/09/10/who-leaked-the-duvall-tape/21489, has reported that Assemblyman Jeff Miller, R-Mission Viejo obtained a tape of the July 8 Assembly Appropriations Committee hearing on which Duvall's comments were made.

Other blogs are doing speculating about who could be involved. A blog from Editorials from Hell's Leading Daily Newspaper, http://thedisbrimstone-dailypitchfork.blogspot.com/2009/09/fallout-from-mike-duvalls-storytelling.html has its own speculation. Beware on this one. There is mature adult content halfway through.

Other blogs in Orange County, http://orangejuiceblog.com/2009/09/did-crp-vice-chair-jon-fleischman-bring-down-mike-duvall/, http://www.theliberaloc.com/2009/09/11/why-fleischman-turned-on-duvall/ and http://www.redcounty.com/duvall-scandal-update-scrutinizing-jeff-miller?taxonomy=29  are doing their own speculation.

There could be some interesting times for the Assembly Republican caucus in the future.
