Gov. Rod 'The Auctioneer' Blagojevich (D - Illinois) - Pt. 1 of ?

"Can I get $1million? Gimme 1mill, 1mill, 1mill. Whoa!!! We have a taker at $1million. How bout a 1-5, 1-5, 1-5. Gimme 1-5, 1-5. Can I get a taker at $1.5million? Whoa!!! We have a U.S. senator at 1-5. How about $2million..............."

- NOTE: This is not an actual quote, but is pretty much the spirit of "The Auctioneer's" actions.

**Trying to sell Barack Obama's open U.S. Senate seat to the highest bidder should be beyond the pale, but nothing is off limits in Illinois politics.........Hell, after seeing Blagojevich try to pull off such a scam, I wouldn't be surprised if someone tries to sneak in a crooked Illinois politician for U.S. President someday.

DOH!!!

Knowing Blagojovich's history, I'm pretty sure we are going to be treated to many more Libby Jackass quotes in the next few days, which is why I've labeled this as Pt. 1 of ?.......I have no idea how many ? will be, but can't wait to find out.

I also can't wait to hear him spill the beans on what other Chi-town politicos might have had a role in this fiasco.........Hmmm. Who is the biggest fish at this time? Could it be the clown walking around with the "Office of the President Elect" sign? Hmmmmm.**
