Everyone ready for the Blago comeback?
Alot swirling today around Blags....

Illinois leg. fails to proceed w/ impeachment.

Fitzgerald's investigation stalling over shaky witnesses. Some are accusing him of unprofessional hyperbole (the comments by the head FBI agent were especially ridiculous, blasting Illinois as some sort of corrupt cesspool).

Some pundits are coming out, saying that Blags probably just talked about the sin rather than doing the sinning.

Could my great thread (see here: http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=132x7971143) have been prophetic? What REALLY did this guy do wrong? Talking about doing something isn't the same as doing it.

Could it be? Could Blags be getting tanned, fit, and ready?



For 2016!

1. He's going down. He'll go to prison
Same shit was said by the REpublicans over Ryan.

Ryan is in prison begging for a pardon or commutation.

And the legislature voted 113-0 in favor of moving forward with impeachment just yesterday. HE will not serve out this term.

The legislature was not in session today.

I live in the Chicago region. Blago is the biggest crook in the state.

2. With Ryan, illegal quid pro quo was actually occurring.
The case against Ryan was much stronger IMO.

3. Actually, no it wasn't
They've got Blago dead to rights shaking down state contractors.

6. I still want Blago/Palin '12... I'm sure he'd switch ideologies given enough "incentive"
