    The Illinois State Senate voted 59-0 to remove him from office and also that he could never again hold public office in Illinois. The lieutenant governor was very quietly sworn in, but they're going to ceremonially swear him in again shortly, so I'm sure that will be all over the late news.

    I don't know if you can see it in this picture but the right-hand side of the sign says "Rod R. Blagojevich, Governor". I heard on news radio that these toll road signs would be removed tomorrow if in fact he was taken out of office. I'd like to go out and do it tonight!


    If something happens to the lieutenant governor between now and the 2010 election, the Illinois Attorney General is next in line and she has said publicly that she doesn't want to be governor.

    I've been Boo'd ... right off the stage!

    Aaahh, I have been defrosted! Thank you, Bonny and Asiel!

    I'm glad it's over and justice prevailed.
