The Governor’s arrest

The Governor’s arrest

So the governor of Illinois, Rod Blagojevich, gets ARRESTED by the FBI for trying to sell Barack Obama’s senate seat for the biggest BRIBE. That flabbergasts me. Most corrupt politicians are far more subtle than that. It will be interesting to see what else comes out of this. It’s a crime to solicit a bribe, but it’s also a crime to do the bribing. I wonder who the bidders turn out to be.
