What's funny is that there probably won't be enough evidence to convict Blagojevich anyway.

All they have is talk - he hasn't actually done anything illegal.

Hold on a sec, Mark. You're saying the attempt to conspire is not illegal?

He was asking for a job and/or legal campaign contributions. Is that really illegal?

I thought it was - attempt to conspire. Just like if you were planning to knock somebody off, the law doesn't need to wait until you successfully carry out your plan.

I have no idea. But from what I've heard in the media, it doesn't sound ot me like what he did should be illegal. Dirty, yes. But not illegal. Not like he was conspiring to do anything illegal like knock off an opponent or steal a bank. He was 'conspiring' to raise legal campaign money ooooh scary.

Then what was he charged with?

Did you read the first sentence of my reply?

Did you read the portion after the comma in the second sentence of my reply?

If they can prove it. You can't convict a person of murder if all they did was talk

about murder. They'll need more than just idle chatter. Is there any real evidence

that Blagojevich actually sought something of value in exchange for the Senate seat?

In the wiretaps, he talked about contributions and favors, but it's not illegal for a

governor to accept contributions or favors from his appointee.

He'll go free, mark my words.

He might or might not get off. This is something that's been in the works for a while now. Polls of Illinois residents as far back as 2006 show Blago's approval ratings dip more than President Bush's. That says a lot about his tenure.

In the court of public opinion, he's been done for a while.
