Blago’s Deadline
The Chicago Sun-Times is reporting that Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich has given himself a deadline—no pressure or anything—of early next week, “perhaps as early as Monday,” to decide whether he will resign. “He was blindsided by this,” a source told the paper. “He needs some time to digest what’s going on. He’s going to make his position clear shortly.” The “blindsided” governor, who was indicted Tuesday for allegedly trying to sell Obama’s Senate seat, has been under investigation for years. On Friday, he retained the services of one Ed Genson, lawyer to R&B singer R. Kelly and imprisoned media baron Conrad Black. Genson “typically doesn’t represent clients who plan to plead guilty,” the Sun-Times reports.

He should resign. He's powerless at this point. Do the right thing Blago. Let Illinois go.
