LOL...I guess there were no big bucks being offered by the Corrupt Democrat machine for poor Duckworth...other than Durbin saying he wanted her and Blago would not return his phonecalls....
hmmmmmmmm.......or did he?
Okay, Duckworth talked with Blago’s office, not Blago directly?! And what is the meaning of “is?”

Spokeswoman: Duckworth hasn’t met about Sen. seat
Associated Press

CHICAGO - Illinois Department of Veterans Affairs Director Tammy Duckworth hasn’t met or spoken with Gov. Rod Blagojevich about replacing President-elect Barack Obama in the U.S. Senate.
That’s according to Duckworth spokeswoman Jessica Woodward.

AHA!
Try this ...
Team 0 gets tip about wiretaps on or about 11/12.
Durbin goes on record that he’ll call for a meeting with Blago about appointments, throwing out Duckworth’s name. (Deflection? Set up?)
O resigns senate seat which ramps up Blago’s decision process. O distances himself from Blago. Jarrett pulls name from list of candidates.
During those three weeks of wire taps missing from the complaint, was Durbin negotiating with Blago? Was it a set up/sting, using Duckworth as the pawn? If Blago didn’t return calls for 12 days, maybe he was on to Durbin.
