"For the good of the people of the state of Illinois and the Democratic Party, I will resign," a clearly emotional Cohen said in a rambling remarks made as the Super Bowl halftime entertainment blared in the background.

I’m devastated.

[Talkradio03]

Looks like alot of the allegations must have been true

[KevinDavis]

Someone made him an offer that he couldn’t refuse..

[stylin19a]

I wonder what he got ?

[Jet Jaguar]

BTTT

[Talkradio03]

the fact that he made the announcement in a bar, says something about the guy...

[Arthur Wildfire! March]

The conservative wrecking ball strikes again.

Scott Lee Cohen makes Rod Blagojevich look like a Cub Scout

[Arthur Wildfire! March]

I’ll take your word for it. I hope to never actually see either of them. Just more roadkill.

Scott Cohen’s “difficulties” were known before the election and nothing was said until he won. Hearing people like Ill. Speaker of the House Madigan and Senator “Turbin” Durbin state that this man was “unfit to hold office” was hypocrasy to the max.

Who? No, I don’t mean the half time show group but ....

Well, just dayum.

“For the good of the people of the state of Illinois and the Democratic Party, I will resign,”

He’s no worse than any other dem, so why quit? Wow that makes him sound like a republican then.

[tflabo]

[hoosiermama]

[onyx]

See you tomorrow when I’m rested. :)
