I would like Freepers to consider participating in an email campaing to Blago, offering support and encoraging him to call the legislature’s bluff to impeach. I don’t think most Illinois Democrats could survive such a public inquiry, including the President Elect. Blago should say, “Go ahead. Let us air our dirty laundry. Let he who has not sinned cast he first stone.”
It appears that his phone conversations—the ones revealed thus far—aren’t enough to convict him of anything, according to all the talking heads I heard this morning. Saying something doesn’t mean any money changed hands or anything untoward actually took place. So he’s got one foot out the door already. I agree that Blago should take a stand. It’s the Chicago way. (And hopefully he and the rest of those involved get their just “rewards”.)
