I have no doubt that Obama and Rahm knew what BLogo wanted and they were ok with that.
The Messiah will fall and be exposed for the dark angel he is.
They have more to worry about with Rezko than Blago............
Let’s see if Blagojevich is more loyal to the Democrat party machine or his own tail.
That 76-page complaint is a treasure of said and unsaid things. If you read it carefully all kinds of interesting questions pop up.
There are SO many people that I want to be Adisor B because they are in deep doo-doo. Isn’t Rahm “Advisor A”?? SWEET....can’t wait for that VICIOUS THUG PUNK to go down. I’m just waiting for the other ballet slipper to fall.
Didn’t Obama pull Jarrett’s name in a CYA move this week?
Hmmmm....many many possibilities...........
Mainstream Media = Epic Fail
to the detriment of us all. This was active electioneering, not simply poor reporting.
And there are a few puppeteers pulling O’s strings.
My money is on “advisor B” being Chicago’s very own Rahm Emanuel or someone directly reporting to him and then thus up to zerO himself
The DNC/Washingont establishment with its goals for a 60 seat democrat majority Senate, would not be oblivious to who would be the new democrat senator from Illinois
Obama is in this so deep that he can barely keep his nose above water. I hope that justice prevails.
Wait until we get to the second tier of players: Michelle Obama, Mrs. Rezko and Mrs. Blago and their real estate deal.
Who is Advisor B ping?!

B has to be the evil Bush.
Bush’s fault.
The first thing I thought of is the talking heads were saying the fact that Blog called BHO a M$$effer shows BHO is totally innocent. I was thinking Blog didn't get an ambassadorship, but may have had something else offered( also illegal), that he didn't want. In any case BHO was negotiating with him. I don't see how Blog being pi$$ed makes BHO totally innocent.
The fun part is none of them know what Fitz has on tape. I expect there will be a whole bunch of "No comment due to the ongoing investigation." Gotta be careful what you say here.
Interesting. Before the scandal broke, Axelrod said Obama was in contact with Blago. Local news reported there would be, and subsequently reported that there was, a meeting between Obama and Blago discussing this. On the tapes, Blago is reportedly cursing Obama because his team offered only “appreciation” rather than cash for putting the Obama pick in the Senate.
Then the scandal breaks, and Obama said they never spoke - and all of the sudden Axelrod and the local news outlet retract their comments. (Any follow-up on why such an egregious error was made? What’s the explanation for the “false story” about a meeting being there in the first place? Who was involved in reporting the story? Has anyone asked them how they were so “mistaken?”)
So either (i) Obama never breathed a word to the Illinois governor about who he would want to be dealing with as one of a hundred members of a Senate teetering on the precipice of a filibuster-proof majority, Axelrod and the local news outlet (two very different actors in totally different positions with respect to the story and presumably relying on different sources) made the exact same mistake, and Blago was somehow delusional and hallucinated that he knew Obama’s preferred candidate for the job, or (ii) Obama made a false statement and Axelrod and the local media are covering for him.
Which is more likely?
