Nailing him will make it three for three of Il governors won’t it?
Baraq’s political schoolyard sure has turned out some great role models for his tutoring...

Not quite, 2 for 2. Jim Edgar, the Republican Governor before Ryan was pretty decent. Left the state with a surplus, did some good stuff AND had a high approval rating. He wasn’t scandal-ridden. I met him briefly because I worked for the medical team at the time who was taking care of his cardiac problems. Very nice and personable, even when he didn’t feel so hot.

Nope 3 out of 5. Edger was probably honest, but had a heart attack and didn't run for reelection.
Thompson was most certainly a RINO crook, but was smart enough to not get caught.
I was joking when I took my son to the capital in Springfield last year that the should paint orange jumpsuits over their portraits.

No, two for two. Jim Edgar had a scandal taint his administration some, but he was never in danger of any charges.
