Politics? Here!?!*

*Because the other blog is dead. Sorry.



The more I hear about Roland Burris, the more I like the man. While it sure looks like Blagojevich's days as governor are numbered -- even if he's corrupt as hell -- he still made a fine choice for the junior Senate seat of Illinois.





It's a shame that Blagojevich's appointment looks like a decoy to steer the news cycle away from the facts of the scandal, but the country's in too much of a mess to wait until its justice system can sort out the Governor's guilt or innocence. Let Burris take the seat, and let the Senate get down to business.
