Roland Burris is a disagreeable loser, but I love the way Blago put the democrat party into a trick bag. They are screwed - on the one hand you have black street thug and criminal Bobby Rush threatening racial violence if the black Burris is not seated in the US Senate. On the other, if Burris manages to be seated, he will lose the seat in 2010 to a white GOP candidate, and that is supposed to be a “black” Senate seat. It’s a beautiful thing Blago did for his vengeance.
There is method to Blago’s madness, for sure. He knows where all the bodies are buried and in whose closet the skeletons are kept. I have a deep feeling that Obama’s people (the odious Ballet Dancer in particular) is involved in criminality beyond this issue and that Blago knows it; perhaps even Obama was involved. I also fear that US DA Fitzgerald may be trying to protect Obama by revealing the conspiracy before he was ready to move.
I pray I am wrong and that Fitz is honest enough to follow this wherever it leads - even to Obama personally - and that he also is able to bag the criminal Daleys and their thug friends. Time to take out the trash in Crook County.
Good analysis, cogent points, but IMHO, you missed one point..If he manages to get seated, Burris would face one, if not more primary opponents..indeed, they’d start campaigning already..
