Former Gov. John G. Rowland, who resigned July 1 amid a scandal over his acceptance of gifts and favors from state contractors and others, is expected to appear today in U.S. District Court in New Haven to enter a guilty plea under an agreement that would send him to jail, the Courant has learned.

As governor, Rowland accepted gifts that rivaled NJ Governor that recently thumbed his nose at the world for his gifts.
The DEMS circled the wagons around their Dem governor, but the repubs in Ct are not strong enough to stick by their crook, so, we let him out to dry.
While Rowland deserved his fate, this was not done for the purpose of keeping politics clean in Connecticut, it was done as a coup, it was all politics, and many Dems have skeletons in their own closets and are hippocrites.

So what's your point?
Rowland should NOT go to jail?
