Emanuel May Be On Tape with Blagojevich

Gerald Ford might be the closest. He was voted into his Congressional seat, but was appointed to the VP position when Spiro Agnew resigned. He then became President when Richard Nixon resigned. So he was the first president to have never won a national election.

You’re the best :) thank you!

Can’t wait until the media pounces on Immanuel like they jumped on Karl Rove.

What a way to go into office....plagued with scum, lies, and corruption.

[Free America52]

The hypocrisy! I’m sure Rahmbo never was involved in any Chicago-land political strong arming when it was to his advantage. I hope the thug lives long enough to sing, after that I have no mercy for street thugs of his ilk.

[penelopesire]

Wait..that is the wrong one...

I thought I had it bookmarked, but I don’t. I just copied it. Sorry

[dandiegirl]

These people are all so dirty. There’s no way the dirty players are going to go down without bringing everyone involved down with them-including Obama. I get a sense that Obama is not loved by everyone in Chicago - someone will rat him out over something.

“Better lawyer up, Rahamamed.”

Not a thing will come of this. Fitz popped it open before anything criminal happened. Talking about a crime with no positive steps towards the crime is NOT A CRIME. I can talk about robbing a bank all I want but as long as I do nothing towards doing it, no crime has taken place.

“That’s NOT the Rahm Emanuel I knew...”

[ANGGAPO]

This is change that you can believe in. You can depend on the Donks to screw it up.

Emmanuel is probably the Pres.-Elect Advisor. Read the article linked above.

Excellent idea....dirty Fitz should not get away with protecting another liberal.

Thank you. It came to me last night as I was drifting off to sleep, feeling satisfied with being on offense now. I was remembering how much fun I had when Clinton was in office. I have made multiple calls this morning and have not had the same person answering the phone. Apparently there are a lot of civil servants in Chicago. I make a different point about why I am supporting Gov. Blagojevich each time I call. Blago needs to know he has some support.

Call Blago and tell him to call their bluff

[Cecily]

No, Rahm will just join the crowd under the bus.

[gymbeau]

I wonder if anyone has ever resigned from the Office of the President-Elect before.

[tophat9000]

Can someone be impeached before their inaugurated? ;>

"Not a thing will come of this. Hold! You just wait til the Republicans in the House and Senate start turning over every rock and . . and . . and . . well, - I'll betcha when the Media, um , ..

On second thought, this scandal obviously leads right back to Bush!! Bush lied and people DIED!!! There you go, thats the ticket.

[MIchaelTArchangel]

Ho! Ho! Ho! Merry Christmas Rahm.

Discussions did take place, which presupposes intent.

Not sure what actions rise to level of conspiracy, but this has got to come close...
