Alright, I heard when US Attorney Patrick Fitzgerald said that the criminal complaint against Blagojevich didn’t involve President-elect Obama.
I’ve now read the entire complaint and in 17 separate phone calls or conversations, the complaint documents Blagojevich and others discussing how to extract something for Blagojevich in return for his selection of the President-elect’s preferred person to replace him in the Senate.
That leaves me thinking that either Blagojevich and those around him are the most delusional people on the face on the earth or they were receiving feedback along the way. At this point I’m not suggesting that Obama was involved but if Blagojevich was getting feedback, someone was giving it to him. I think this investigation has the potential to make the Scooter LIbby situation look like first year law school stuff.
This could be fun.
