More corruption in Chicago

Governor Blagojevich of Illinois was placed under arrest about two days ago for various criminial accusations including fraud, soliciting bribes, etc for trying to sell the senate seat that was left vacant after President-elect Barack Obama won the presidential election in November. This guy is finished; I've been listening to some of the wire taps that the media has been releasing and its very bad. This guy is definately going to prison no matter what kind of deal he is offered by the FBI; its just a matter of time before heads start rolling cause Blogojevich is almost certainly going to talk. One of the notable names being mentioned right now is Jesse Jackson Jr. Throughout the presidential campaign, we heard about the corrupt political machine that was at work in Chicago and now we (outsiders) are finally getting to see what every one was talking about. Apparently, the former Illinois Governor is also sitting in prison for criminal actions he committed while in office. Looks like he's going to have company.
