He is an absolute buffoon. Not just corrupt, but stupid and corrupt.

His greatest show of stupidity? That he actually thinks he is smarter than all the rest of us.

What i dont get is why he still continued to use and talk on his office phone about the Obama seat.

Did he not take time to think about using a private line or something other than his OFFICE PHONE! Gosh, im glad this friggin crook got nailed!

In that vein he reminds me of 1988 Presidential candidate Gary Hart, who effectively dared the press to follow him around, and they did...right to the Washington flat where he was shacking with Donna Rice.

Nothing like watching an arrogant person engineer their own destruction!

At least the Reds won that year.
Gambling in baseball, and to imagine Pete Rose wasn't involved.

It's gotta suck having the FBI at your door at 6 am with handcuffs waiting to haul you out into the cold.

Last night was the first I knew of this guy, but he really comes across as a smug prick.

I'll never forget when he first got elected. He said something to the effect that he had a "hunk a hunk a burnin' love" for Illinois. My mom, who was standing next to me and is normally pretty reserved, turns to me, looks me dead in the eye and says, "Oh my G-d, we have a f***ing elvis as govenor"

I've never looked at her in quite the same way since

Chicago and Ill. are corrupt? You coulda knocked me over with a feather

Isn't Jesse Jackson in Chicago? Perhaps he could do a "laying on of hands" on the gov. Oh, no, forget that. He got in a bit of trouble for that, didn't he.

Maybe we can get the Rev. Wright to pray for the governor. Yeah, that's the ticket.

What does having such a boob for governor say about Illinois voters (both dead and alive)?

Funny you should mention the good Reverend...

We get so used to hearing about "Politician A", "Government Official B" and now "Senate Candidate 5" we may actually elect someone with those names one day.

Campaign commercial could be like the Pepsi Taste Taste.

"Let's see which politician the citizens think has less corruption..Politician A or Politician B."
