If it turns out that Fitz’s case is hurt by the early arrest it would be entirely fitting since part of Blago’s extortion was to get the Trib’s editorial board removed. Wouldn’t it be ironic if the case can’t be made because of these same editors.
The best thing for Obama, JJ, Jr. and the Daley machine would be if the case could NOT be made against Blago. They'd like Blago to resign and disappear from the face of the earth, but don't want him to spill the beans on the dirt on everyone around him.
