Ping.

Isn’t this precious? So now we know why Reid and Durbin are so set against Burris. Like Jackson and Danny Davis, Reid and Durbin don’t think Burris can win the seat in a 2010 election.

I couldn’t figure out why Burris wouldn’t be acceptable to the Senate because he is as qualified as any other candidates mentioned and he is black. What else could they want? Now we know they want electability.

I guess it’s difficult for a Democrat to be elected unless they have the backing of the Daley machine and Jackson, Davis and Burris apparently do not. Duckworth and Madigan apparently do. The power behind all this are fascinating.

Blago is holding all the trump cards. He just played another one with this leak to the Sun-Times, which had to come from him.

On Fox News, it was just reported that Blago was stripped of his security clearance by the Homeland Security Dept.

......Reid and Durbin are dead set against Burris....

THIS JUST IN Chicagoans interested in measuring the girth of Burris' ego can stroll through Oak Woods Cemetery on the South Side............to admire the would-be US senator's huge erect tombstone......

I guess Reid and Durbin do not want ANOTHER erect member in the Senate (smirk).

PS: Don't even ask to describe the shape of Burris' erect tombstone (snicker).
