- Robjayne, on 12/12/2008, -1/+35Rats fleeing a sinking ship?
- chicagojack, on 12/12/2008, -0/+24surprise
- WordsnCollision, on 12/12/2008, -0/+20There'll be plenty of "staff" to oversee where he's going...
- JYoungest1, on 12/13/2008, -0/+14Now all we need is Gov. Bagochips to resign and we will be good. Until we elect our next crook.
- yeahaboutthat, on 12/13/2008, -0/+10Perhaps he had to. Perhaps he's talking to the Feds in order to work out a deal....
- heybigjohn, on 12/13/2008, -0/+8He may sing to strike a deal. Rod's already going down, but it's the others that may have conspired that have more to fear once Harris starts talking. Jesse Jackson, Jr., are you listening?
- oblivionatm, on 12/13/2008, -0/+6I've heard from a few people I know in the area that the answer is definitely #1. Apparently Obama got nothing done in his short time in the senate. Don't know how that didn't come up during the election. I still think he'll do a good job, hope so anyway, but that won't change the fact that he wasn't much of a senator.
- shoppingkart, on 12/13/2008, -0/+5Hint hint, Rod.
- dmelo, on 12/13/2008, -1/+6and that is as far as his punishment will go just like always.
- publiclurker, on 12/13/2008, -5/+9And just why should Obama resign? Because he's from the same city? That's like blaming your family for being associated with a looser like you. While they are probably to blame for failing to raise you right, your current disgraces are not their fault.
- mcquitty, on 12/13/2008, -2/+6Lose = to not have any more.
Loser = One that fails consistently, especially a person with bad luck or poor skills.
Loose = not compact or dense in structure or arrangement; "loose gravel"
Straight now? - Dinsdale77, on 12/13/2008, -2/+6.....after it became apparent that he could not pronounce his bosses last name.
- SouthsideIrish, on 12/13/2008, -0/+4Hot off of the presses, the Tribune reports that he, Emmanuel, had conversations with Blagojevich.
- DavidChouinard, on 12/13/2008, -0/+4When I saw this guy's name, I though someone just let their cat loose on their keyboard or something.
- bchristie, on 12/13/2008, -0/+3He needs the time to get his book published before the story drops out of the news cycle.
Just another political career change. - TheMachine1, on 12/13/2008, -0/+3A pessimist sees this as bad an optimist like the Governor sees this as a money making opportunity.
- evilpolitians, on 12/13/2008, -7/+10Explain please...
Every news outlet is reporting on the historical, widespread corruption throughout Illinois and Chicago. How is it that Obama has zero dirt? Yes he kept his distance. But to get anything done, you gotta work with "The Machine".
That leaves three choices:
1 - Obama got nothing done in Illinois
2 - Obama wasn't around long enough to get any dirt on him
3 - Obama used his staff to handle the dirty stuff
And yes there is damage control planning going on. Keep on eye on Rahm Emanuel. - SouthsideIrish, on 12/13/2008, -0/+3Who's? Blagojevich who is looking at 20+ years in prison, or John Harris who will be singing like a canary to get less time in jail. Just so you know, our glorious attorney general goes for lots of jail time when he gets a conviction.
- inactive, on 12/13/2008, -3/+6Rahm Emmanuel has been suspiciously quiet.
- Cararan, on 12/12/2008, -2/+4That's a good one.
- celebfan0712, on 12/13/2008, -0/+2Better late than never. Just 72 hours too late.
- zydeco, on 12/13/2008, -2/+4Anyone versed in Chicago politics knows the most visible guys actually have the least leverage. For every Blago running in a public office, there's a guy like DeLeo pulling the strings in the background. Most believe DeLeo is really governing this state at the moment, not Blago.
Everyone wants to believe Obama is deeply tied into the machine, and certainly there are connections. It's not like we have Machine Democrats and Rest-Of-Illinois-Democrats. They're all in the same party and they talk. - BettyFrost, on 12/13/2008, -0/+2What's in the water in Illinois that they've had so many Government scandals? Don't think I'll ever make my home there.

Sadly, he probably will get a book or movie deal or figure out a way to monetize this.
- SouthsideIrish, on 12/13/2008, -1/+3And actually I think that Pat Quinn is a good guy as he is an outsider. He is one of the few Democrats that I have voted for in the past.
- TheCabDriver, on 12/13/2008, -0/+2Now it's your turn to resign Blagojevich. Impeachment proceedings take far too long. It's shameful that such corrupt men are able to trick the public into electing them.
- dollar0dot02, on 12/13/2008, -1/+3He is not going to resign. He is planing to sell his chair on EBay. How is he going to do that in get away with it? Simple, he is going to pardon himself.
- dusanmal, on 12/13/2008, -1/+3But we did elect the next crook already... He even used the Blago's election platform of "CHANGE", just we misunderstood which change they want.
- spider-man, on 12/14/2008, -0/+2Um, it did come up in the election many times. It was just blindly ignored.
- inactive, on 12/14/2008, -0/+2obama will destroy this country. you think bush was bad? just watch...Illinois is just a microcosm for what is coming.
- mr5150, on 12/13/2008, -1/+2Can anyone say 'Crooked Douche' and perhaps have his picture next to that in a Wikipedia entry.
- evilpolitians, on 12/13/2008, -2/+3Jessie may not have been involved directly. Much like Obama. But watch for the FBI to be talking to a lot of their staff and associates.
- FI5HERMAN, on 12/13/2008, -1/+2D.C.M......Don't Come Monday......great title for a song !!!
- publiclurker, on 12/13/2008, -4/+5Right, giving appreciation sis just so [bleep] [bleep].
Crawl back under your rock spaz. we don't need your filth here. - Andysan, on 12/13/2008, -7/+8The question forming in most people's minds is: Did Obama rise to the Presidency in spite of the Chicago corruption or because of it? The longer this goes on, the more it looks as though Obama was an active player and not an innocent observer as he would have us believe.
Supposedly Obama gets a high level intelligence briefing every day. Maybe that is followed by the low-level corruption briefing necessary to keep him up to speed on the hottest Chicago events. Right now the scum-bag politicians probably get more of his attention than the international bad guys. Perhaps he had better get his political house in order and do it soon. - king52, on 02/13/2009, -0/+1A Big Surprise!! http://www.travellot.co.uk

Thanks
Have a great day :) - inactive, on 12/15/2008, -0/+1Dont be fooled. Pat has know about what Blago has been doing for a long time. He never had the guts to do anyhitng about it.
- inactive, on 12/15/2008, -0/+1I would be okay with that as long as he mentioned by name every person he did "special" deals with.
- captcoolguy, on 12/13/2008, -1/+1More corrupt Americans!

- inactive, on 12/13/2008, -3/+2i think obama should resign because he is a liar. we wasted 8 years before we impeached clinton for being a liar. we never impeached bush for being a liar, which was a mistake. now we have this ass surrounded by liars, lies himself and isn't even president yet. lets stop the problem before it starts. but anyways...what do i know. im just a looser...haha at least i can spell.
- bsmang, on 12/13/2008, -7/+3I'm somewhat surprised that you were able to get all those words typed out all by yourself.
- inactive, on 12/12/2008, -9/+4Fresh fish! Fresh fish!
Hey buddy, I dopped my soap. Get it for me, will ya? You're a Democrat, right? You know, ass and everything. - ImagesGS, on 12/13/2008, -12/+6I'm somewhat surprised to see the connections between Obama and Blagojevich, both stemming from the highly corrupt Chicago political machine.
http://ramblingsofjohn.blogspot.com/2008/12/blagoj ... - inactive, on 12/12/2008, -18/+10...and probably singing like a canary. I bet the Obama campaign is in full damage control mode.
