Who is this guy, Rod Blagojevich? A corrupt Democratic Governor of Illinois! OH NO.... aw yes!
Sometimes you gotta wonder why people with such powerful positions would have such poor judgement ... selling a high profile vacated senate seat to the highest bidder, in a high profile state known for corruption, during a high profile presidential transition period. What was this idiot thinking? Precisely! An idiot!
I have not read much into the details of his scheme, but have seen him on television enough during the course of his arrest and release. I can't help wondering, how did this meathead get elected to governorship? He looks a little smug to me! I know I should not judge one by one's appearance, but he just looks like those movie extras that director would use for playing roles like "snitch" gangsters in witness protection! (Below, see what I mean?)
It's such a bad move for him, at a time when everyone in Washington is talking about political reform, and cutting down government corruption. I wonder what impact this would have on Obama's transition into the White House. Today, Obama has called for Blagojevich's resignation - let's hope he will exit the governorship with a little dignity and show some respect for the president-elect.
There must be some "house cleaning" for Obama and the Democratic Congress. It would be embarrassing for all democrats to run on a platform of reform and change, yet the corruption is coming from within. Another layer of the challenges for the incoming administration! (sigh!)
