More Likely to Run, or Less?

Kevin Shaw Kellems, a former Lugar aide, has been occassionally mentioned as a possible candidate to run as a Republican in the 9th Congressional District against Democrat Baron Hill.

Unfortunately for Kellems, he has also been a longtime aide and associate of former Pentagon #2 and Iraq war architect Paul Wolfowitz, who now heads the World Bank.

As Advance Indiana reports, Wolfowitz has gotten into a bit of a scandal--little reported in the United States--about giving cushy staff jobs to two people (as an aside, Wolfowitz apparently asked to recuse himself on the matter but was told that he could not do so).

One was a woman with which Wolfowitz has been romantically involved, and the other was Kevin Kellems.

Wolfowitz has now apparently hinted that he is willing to sack them both in order to end the scandal.

Brian Howey mentioned Kellems as a possible candidate against Baron Hill back in February.

So this begs a simple question.

How do the Wolfowitz scandal and/or being fired from the World Bank impact the possibility of Kellems returning to Indiana and running for Congress?

Is he even interested in running, should Mike Sodrel not run?
