so...Gov. Rod has been arrested. i'm listening to the press conference now. (and, can i say that patrick fitzgerald is awesome?)
i was in an early morning meeting, standing in line for coffee when the guy next to me looked down at his blackberry and said, 'huh. the governor was just taken into custody by the feds.'
a white-haired woman said, 'get out.'
i said, 'you're kidding.'
he said, 'no lie. the trib just sent an alert.'
all of us whipped out our blackberries and checked. we gasped and hurried to sit down and read the news. the trib updated about every 20 minutes or so and when 2 state senators referenced it from our panel later in the meeting, the majority of the audience gasped.
dude. this is huge.
this dumb, awful, incompetent man was trying to sell Obama's old senate seat, among other things.
you have to read the trib story. appalling.
the thing is, until he's convicted of conspiracy to commit a crime, he's still governor! technically, he could still appoint obama's successor!
consider this your place to mull all things corrupt and shameful.
