“The transition from cause to effect, from event to event, is often carried on by secret steps, which our foresight cannot divine, and our sagacity is unable to trace. Evil may at some future period bring forth good; and good may bring forth evil, both equally unexpected.”
–Joseph Addison

Burris claims he’d want to run for reelection, but he’s 71 already.
Some will say Blagojevich shouldn’t do anything, but honestly I think we’re going to need as many Democratic Senators as we can get before inauguration day. We need 60 votes for cloture, and lately we’ve been losing cloture votes due to absences, not Republican solidarity.
as long as Minnesota is also vacant, the number for cloture dropped by one.
But of course you’re right.
was a very good public servant in Illinois. He has never been tainted by any hint of scandal.
Even though he has lost several primary races of late, he is respected by both sides of the aisle in Illinois.
Having said that, I doubt that he will hold the seat in ’10…he’ll likely be primaried and lose again….
Burris has said he DOES NOT want to run for re-election in 2 years.
Here is video of his announcement that he was interested in the appointment from 12/13/08…

Gov. Blago names a Senator that they may have to seat. Rep. Bobby Rush is already demanding that Roland Burris be seated. Great move by Blago.
Is this somehow going to keep him out of jail ?
no
Not that I give a damn about football.
