Which Way’s Up?

Just as you thought the much too real look at the corrupt sausage factory we call Illinois Politics had come to a slimy disgraceful conclusion, the thing from the swamp has reared its  ugly head one more time.  

Now comes word that Sen. Burris, who was appointed by the well passed disgraced Blagojevich, had tried (unsuccessfully) to raise money for Blago, who in turn found a nice government job for Burris’ son.  Which leads me to ask this: What was the political gain for Blago to appoint anyone to the Senate?  Isn’t it just dragging out the disgrace and thus keeping his tarnished name in the papers?  Won’t this simply taint the jury poll against him?  Is that what he’s banking on, a ruling that he is incapable of getting a fair trial in Illinois?

My money’s on insane megalomaniac.
