Re: Illinois Governor Arrested on Corruption Charges
I wonder if the other 23 being deemed mistrials had anything to do with Rahm Emmanuel's involvement and lack of cooperation?
Also, Valerie Jarrett is in hot water herself, and was reportedly who Barrack Obama wanted to handpick as his replacement...relayed to Blago via Rahm Emmanuel. There are a lot of connections when it comes to Chicago/Illinois/now White House politics. Even Jesse Jackson, Jr. was apparently involved. The whole thing is a huge mess. You can't but to wonder if Rod getting off on 23/24 charges has anything to do with the other people involved and the political ramifications of bringing more attention to them. Witness: Rahm Emanuel asked me to call Blagojevich to say President Elect Barack Obama wanted Valerie Jarrett - The Blago Blog Rahm Emanuel talked with governor's office about who should fill Obama's Senate seat - chicagotribune.com Blagojevich scandal: Rahm Emanuel and Jesse Jackson Jr face new revelations - Times Online Rahm Emanuel 'traded political favours with Rod Blagojevich' - Telegraph
