He’ll just run things from prison and get elected again and again and again! If anything, prison enhances his resume.

I’ll believe it when it happens.
He’s more likely to be the next Senator from Illinois than he is to spend time in jail.

“who is battling legal troubles and mental illness”
I guess the reason he should resign is that he is actually battling mental illness whereas his colleagues in D.C. have totally given in to it.

In a few years he will rise rapidly to the top of the democrat party.

IF he’s willing to plea to a littel jail time it can only be because he knows they have enough to put him away forever if he puts up a fight.
To: elhombrelibre
A cynical person would wonder why he is negotiating now, before the pardons are granted.
Call me cynical. :)

Mental illness is b.s. If he did the crime, he should do the time.

About 70% of his District need psychological evaluation, too. They voted for him. What were they thinking? Oh, wait. This is ILL-ANNOY.
