Rod Blagojevich

I'm a Chicagoan, and while I don't think the national media often captures The Windy City accurately, in the wacky case of Illinois Governor Rod "What, me worry?" Blagovich trying to sell a senate seat with the Feds already in his illustrious hair, I guess they got the basics about right. In other words, in any other state of this great union, Blago's blatant "play for pay" would be so unbelievable as to be laughable, but in Illinois, when it comes to political corruption, we've been taught to expect the unexpected.

The author thinks we aren’t aware of the fact that this is only an urgent matter for lib/dems because it looks bad for their messiah? Please....we’re not stupid. We know that lib/dems don’t really care about the corruption of Blago, just the image of their dear leader matters. We know that once Blago is out of the way, we’ll never hear about him again.
