The big story in Illinois during he election and immediate post-election period really wasn't Obama ~ it was "closing the state parks".

Blog closed all the state parks except those in Chicago. If you wanted to know where Blog was during that period of time you need to look up the park stories.

I am pointing out that Obama lied when he said he didn't discuss filling the Senate seat with Blagojevich.

Besides his ‘spokesman's’ assertions on TV that ‘Obama had spoke to the Governor about it’, this story also shows that he met with him about it.
