This is a serious question: Is it out of the ordinary for an outgoing Senator to consult with a Governor who is going to appoint said Senator’s vacant seat? If you take all the bribery and corruption out of this equation, is it something that happens often? Is there a legal precedence for it?

December 12, 2008 at 1:02 PM #314842felixParticipant[quote=TheBreeze][quote=felix]Another questionable Obama link.
I tried to warn folks about looking for a reformer from the cesspool of politics that is Illinois and in particular Chicago, my home town.
So now we have the questionable relationships; Obama/Rev Wright, Obama/Ayers, Obama/Rezko and now Obama/Blago.

None of those Fox-news contrived ‘relationships’ bother me nearly as much as McSame’s close relationship with Chimpy:

Could you imagine four more years of the same douchebag policies we’ve all had to suffer through over the last 8 years? *Shudder*[/quote]
Contrived relationships?
You have your head in the sand.
Obama comes out yesterday and says there are two types of pols. The Blago’s of the pol world are looking to just make $ and the others, supposedly the Obama’s, who are there for public service.
That sure sounds nice but why then would Obama endorse Blago not once but twice? And why then would he not only endorse Blago but be the first to endorse him for Governor?? Blago’s rep was no more a secret than Rev. wright’s views or Ayers past.
I’ll tell you why he would endorse Blago. They both are both from the political tree Rezko’s making. Rezko started both these guys as pols who would go along and play the game the way it is played here.
More and more is going to come out. Blago won’t go down alone. His type never does. Obama and his Chicago crew are very deep into this mess.
