Sic 'em, Obama!

Looks like it was the Obama team that busted Blagojevich. According to the Huffington Post:

Local news reports, meanwhile, suggest that it was Obama chief-of-staff Rahm Emanuel who blew the whistle on the governor.

Rot in Jail

Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich's job creation plan apparently was limited to three people: two cushy six-figure jobs for himself and his wife, and a seat in the US Senate for whoever was willing to provide them.

Sorry, Gov. Go to fail. Go directly to fail. On the bright side, it's kind of nice to know a governor who tries this crap will in fact get caught.

Fun fact: This makes two Illinois governors in a row to wind up behind bars. The last one, at least, was a Republican.
