Blagojevich Blunder

I know the economy is pretty bad right now, but resorting to auctioning off President-elect Obama's Senate seat? Really? When I first heard about this on the news, I honestly thought it was a joke, but unfortunately for myself and the rest of the country, it was only the tip of the iceberg. Rod R. Blagojevich has been charged with not only auctioning off the senate seat, but also for participating in "pay-for-play" schemes, harassing the Chicago Tribune, and trying to get himself either a chair position, or a better paying job for his wife. The kinds of stuff he is reported to have said in taped phone conversations in unbelievable, it sounds like something straight out of a movie.
