Blagojevich Makes Edwin Edwards Look Like An Amateur
Blagojevich’s arrest was so startling that my husband woke me up to tell me about it. (Yes, I was sleeping, I am trying to get over a horrible cold and sinus infection.)
Let’s just say that while Edwards was greedy and corrupt, I don’t think he had the “fire in the belly” to really hurt people that these recordings of Blagojevich have shown.
I’m not a great political blogger and for the truly astounding depth of scumbagginess that the Governor of Illinois has fallen to, start with Althouse, here and here. Her commenters are having some fun with this.

UPDATE: From the comments below, you’ve got to read this, it’s short and makes a valid point I’ve not seen elsewhere.

I was just saying to myself WTF? That guy seems shady to me. Who thinks up this stupid stuff and actually goes through with it? What an idiot.

We’re all straining our vocabularies to come up with appropriately strong words to describe Blagojevich and what he’s done. Or attempted to do. You just almost have to cuss to get the point across.

Who? Blagojevich, Edwards, or Marinello?
