1) Not that I give a rat’s patootie in this particular case, but since Blago hasn’t for the moment reached whatever low bar they have in IL for staying in office, doesn’t whatever he does still count? And since when can the Senate approve or disapprove of whomever a state sends as part of their delegation?
2)Why do the Senate democrats NOT want this guy sworn in as a (D) ASAP, since their margin is not yet filibuster-proof? Is he honest or something?
Probably a crook who hasn't yet been vetted and bought off by the other crooks who control 80% of the rest of the Senate. They don't want anyone in that seat until they are absoultely sure he will "play ball", the way JJJ would have.
