Bush was one man and will soon be gone. The Dems have an All-Star line-up and have the monopoly. Maybe they'll surprise people and succeed, but that's just "hope" with no basis in past actions. Jefferson and Spitzer are already "out."

You can bet Blagojevitch and Burris probably have been discussed all possible scenarios before made that announcement. And Burris is probably the highest bidder for that seat.

A fundamental part of American life as exhibited in the Constitution is the concept that the government and its respective branches and members will deal fairly with the public, and will do so in a manner to avoid the appearance of impropriety. The tape recorded conversations of Blagojevitch in the worst case scenario have caset serious doubt on whether he has dealt fairly with his constitutients, and in the best case scenario have cast serious doubts at to whether the appointment is free from the appearance of corruption. This is important because as a U.S. Senator, Burris not only represents the States of Illinois, he also represents the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. Therefore, it is incumbent upon our other representatives in the U.S. Senate to investigate and examine the validity of the appointment. I would be disappointed if they just took Blagojevtich's word for it that the appointment was free from corruption. Besides, the Illinois Secretary of State, who is also an African American, as of yesterday, refused to certify the appointment.

He would mess up a good love story. He does not know how to make a good decision. He appears to not be behind Obams and he is a democrat. He just wants to make waves and get attention of any kind. Obama has made some good choices and I do not see his color now should it matter to the democrats since they put him in. He is the better of the choices so far. He seems to have things in order. Let us all give him a chance. I would not put anything past Reid. He would mess up a good love story. He does not know how to make a good decision.
