If you haven't seen the news today, the big story is the Governor of Illinois (and his chief of staff) was arrested on charges of bribery. One of the charges was basically that he was trying to sell the empty Senate seat, which was left when Obama was elected our next Pres.

Looks like yet another governor from Illinois going to jail.

This has the potential to get really messy.

Rod Blagojevich went to my high school, Lane Tech, in the 9th and 10th grade about 6 years before me. :( His brother graduated from Lane.
Maybe if he would have been in our award-winning band, he would have learned to be a more upright person from our great director, Maurice Golden :)
