Got to wonder what's going on in Blago's head. Other than "I can't believe I got caught".

Dude.

I think he is honestly confused about the hubbub over the senate seat.

In my opinion that is a relatively minor issue. Blagojovich may have been excessively explicit about it but what he did is barely any farther along selling the seat than happens all the time.

It's the other charges (the one that nobody in the national press cares about) that are far more damning in my opinion. So, I think -- a tad reasonably -- he's feeling the outrage of a jaywalker getting a ticket. Sure, technically it is illegal but everybody does it so why are you picking on him?

This is not to say that his public responses have been particularly sane.

Hardly. Even if it IS a toupee, do you think for a second he hasn't deluded himself into considering it real hair?

That's what made it so sad for me- in the normal course of politics, people will give him goodies voluntarily, yet he had to get greedy and make it explicit, and solicit the handouts. If he'd just let people come to him, he wouldn't have been in as much trouble.

He got too bold, too greedy.

What are the other charges he's facing? I haven't done any research.

Agreed, watch this if you can stand it. Seriously, cowboy analogies?
