Re: Illinois - wow!
Lovely. The day I was driving out of Chicago earlier this month, the local NPR station was having a big discussion about Blagojevich & his "troubles". The moron was already under investigation for other "questionable" decisions ... how could he be so stupid as to try this?

Re: Illinois - wow!
If you follow Illinois politics, you know that the governor was really groomed into politics by his father-in-law, Dick Mell, who came out a couple of years ago and called his son in law corrupt, said he didn't trust him, yada, yada, yada... If I had to guess, the big Chicago politicians initially had hopes for Rod becoming president, and then abandoned ship once he was in the governor's mansion and screwing up royally, throwing their full support behind Obama. The state is going to have years of undoing the mess in the governor's office.-Deb

Re: Illinois - wow!
Yup that's one stunning trainwreck. I don't have anything to add, really. I don't know anyone who likes Blagojevich, but the Illinois Republicans are also in shambles so he managed to stay in. Hope they get it straightened out, there's still a state to be run here.Married to a hematopathologist seven years out of training.

Re: Illinois - wow!
Why is NOTHING happening? Blagojevich won't speak to the media, and he hides out at home and in an office downtown. Why does he not live and work in Springfield?
Could it be that he'll actually get away with this? I mean, he hasn't DONE anything wrong. He was just PLANNING to sell the seat, as far as they can tell. :huh:married to an anesthesia attending

Re: Illinois - wow!
Well, he can't talk to the press per Fitzgerald and he's apparently 'working from home'.
His legal team is saying that the Feds have nothing because he can SAY anything he wants. That said, since the Feds have had him under investigation for four years, I'm betting this was the straw for them.
Apparently Jesse Jackson, III was one of the informants and has been for years.
