Illinois Governor arrested by the feds for allegedly strong-arming Obama

[DavidMn]

I just heard this about 20 minutes ago. Maybe someone else can post the actual news release but apparently Mr Rod Blagoevich, govermor was caught in intercepted phone calls basically telling Obama or one of his minions that unless he got a prime job in the new administration, he'd appoint HIMSELF to the open Senate seat. Now the guy's probably gonna resign and his career is probably over. I know it's not the same circumstances, but I couldnt help but think of Elliot Spitzer. Apparently, this is much worse than I originally thought. I'm watching a news conference now, and they are accusing him of demanding a job for his wife and MONEY too along with other various assorted favors. HELLO JAIL.
