The fact that he wouldn't take questions does bother me.  My guess is that someone behind the scenes and in Jesse Jackson Jr.'s camp might definitely have tried to work out a deal (which certainly included a payment of money to the Governor) in JJJ's behalf.

But then again, maybe not?  Because if a deal had been in the works, wouldn't it have been on tape?

Yes this is logical. But I am very curious if he is involved and who else.

Obama's home state, where he was so long active in politics is such a marsh. This is the situation, like I read, since the beginning of the 20th century there.

I think Obama must have had his hands in a lot of dark businesses there. If not he will never became senator.

If he now is turning against Blago, this crook will do what every lowlife does. He will tell the destrict attouney everything he knows in order to get a mild punishment.

This could be not nice for Hussein
