    I think his wife is, too. Most everyone else around here believes he's guilty.

    The defense rested without calling any witnesses at his first trial, but the second time he spent days on the stand in his own defense. I wonder if that was a tip-off to the jury in some way.

    He's sooooo busted! He'll probably go to some ultra-cushy federal prison like George Ryan did, though.

    I think that after Jesse Jr. refused the deal, Blago was only interested in giving the seat to whoever would generate the most cash.

    I don't think prison uniforms have pockets for hairbrushes, so I wonder if he'll be subjected to a buzz cut?

    I can't wait to see what Second City and SNL come up with for this. And Leno and Letterman. Gov, dude... did you really think you were going to walk on this? Puhleeze.
