I wonder if Obama will pardon him? The only stinker in that picture is Blago has to first go through the court process and get convicted. Maybe they’ll cut a deal. Obama gets to avoid saying anything that incriminates himself and in return he pardons Blago. There’s no way to pardon someone accused of a crime but not convicted yet is there? (BO could invent a special pre-conviction pardon by executive order.)

Ford pardoned Nixon who was neither indicted nor convicted of any crime.
