  • | Reply | Permalink the logic is understandable, but it's mostly a game of misdirection. just because governor blagojevich didn't attempt to sell the seat to a friend of president-elect obama through obama, doesn't mean the governor didn't try to sell it to anyone else. this doesn't change much of anything, especially since pat fitzgerald remarked at the press conference that the president-elect was not involved and is not implicated in any wrongdoing.

  • The name of the most recent corrupt Illinois governor appears to be well on its way to becoming a byword. Taking off from David Letterman's coinage of the verb "to blagojevich" (he said the governor was charged with "one count of bribery, one count of fraud and one count of Blagojeviching"), the Chicago Tribune has this suggestion:

    "We can come up with a working definition: Blagojevich (bluh-GOY-uh-vich) noun. a scandalous person —verb 1 to damage or cheapen 2 to complain —adj., adv. (Vulgar Slang) 1 bleeping. But would anyone use it?"
