No, he doesn’t. He sounded completely disgusted with everything.
This is like an old-timey news conference. I picture all the reporters to be wearing fedoras and running out to a row phone booths when this is over.

Who’s Blago’s lawyer? The New Media (and Jon Kass of the “old” media!) wants to vet his lawyer for connections to Opossum.
