    I spoke with my family in Illinois this weekend. They are so embarrassed.

    I think it interesting...there was one desenting vote -- against impeachment.

    It was Blagovich's sister-in-law -- sister of his wife!

    From the Chicago-Tribune -

    "Impeached Gov. Rod Blagojevich has hired a public relations firm. . . . Among the clients listed at the firm's Web site are former Bolingbrook police sergeant Drew Peterson, who is suspected in the disappearance of his fourth wife, Stacy Peterson. . . .

    The saga continues ... Even if Blago is removed from office, he does not lose his state pension. I think he should - I believe Gov. Ryan did.

    If Rod is convicted of a felony he too will lose his state pension. Fingers crossed!

    What on earth did Geraldo have to say in Blago's defense?

    Death thought about it.
