“You haven’t proved a crime, and you can’t because it didn’t happen,” Blagojevich said. “How can you throw a governor out of office with insufficient and incomplete evidence?”

I believe we should mount a “Keep Blagojevich” campaign. I’ve always felt it important that we not hide problems but instead keep them visible, so that we continue to discuss them, and so that they set examples to others of things not to do. Government inherently invites corruption and special treatment for those that are currently favored and politically correct. We must continually remind the gullible–the voters–of this fact. What better way than to help a sick man keep his power over them?
