We apologize for all the political posts today, but we were inspired by the sight of the dysfunctional Illinois democratic family putting their differences aside to sit next to each other at little Barack’s recital yesterday.
But like all good family gatherings, this one is about to blow up, we think. We reported (i.e., stole from Michael Sneed) a rumor that there was a Blagojevich scandal brewing, based on the fact that his legal counsel abrubptly resigned. Well. According to WLS, the Gov’s new legal counsel has also resigned. That’s two lawyers in one month. Blagojevich seems to be eating up lawyers the way Mayor Daley tears through chicken wings. (We don’t know that Daley likes chicken wings, but we’re feeling pretty confident in our intuition today.)
