Senator-Elect: Bring on the GAO Reports!

Look out, bureaucrats! Sen.-elect Claire McCaskill, D-Mo., has her eye on you. Here's McCaskill, a former county prosecutor and state auditor, in today's Kansas City Star:

I've been able to arm-wrestle some bureaucracies in Missouri. I know a lot about federal programs. I know how badly they behave. It's not very sexy, but the GAO [Government Accountability Office] is going to love me as a senator. My office is actually going to read their audits.

The paper said McCaskill is "interested in serving on both the Senate Judiciary and Government Reform committees." If she actually said that, she may want to get GAO to send her a report on how Congress is organized. She'd have to get herself elected to the House to serve on the Government Reform Committee. Over in the Senate, Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs is what she's looking for. (Thanks for the tip, K.R.)
