The thing about Roland Burris is that -- he covets that senate seat. And he's coveted it since he lost in the 1984 election. With Blago offering it to Burris it's like a drug pusher always keeping that bag of heroin just out of the junkies reach. Its all sooooooooo close you but you just can't have it.
So this move by Blago was extremely devious. He knew what Burris' reaction would be and that he'd do everything to be seated. No mater what the consequences were for all involved. Including creating a Constitutional crisis and a Judicial showdown.
I'd bet that right now Blago is sitting back LHAO. He's like the kid who loved pulling wings off flies and torturing small animals to see the reaction.
Blago is a megalomaniac(1) and a psychopath(2).
I disagree... I think Blago is a guy who won’t be thrown under the bus... It also seems like people are trying to paint him as a psycho and megalomaniac... He may have an inflated ego... but in my opinion he’s not crazy.
