I'm sure the Jesse Jackson Jr. is one of the 'candidates' for Obama's empty seat whose disposition has come under an immense cloud of suspicion. Hell a full blown FBI investigation. I'm trying to remember where I've heard it said that this seat is a 'black' seat and Jackson had better get it. Google doesn't serve, but the text is out there somewhere.
Well, like I said. People are starting to recognize politics as politics. Speaking of which, there have been what? three Democrat scandals in a row? Finally Cold Cash Jefferson went down.
Anyway, as of this morning, Jackson is confirmed as 'Candidate Number Five'. He'll be doing the appropriate mambo to insure he doesn't have to swallow his own backwash. On the other hand, offering just one million probably made him the low bidder, in which case I agree with McArdle who says it was probably the low bidder who turned Blagojevich in. Makes sense.
