Change.

Do you think that Obama wanted to change the governor of Illinois?

  • I’m not sure if he did. Still, I smell a rat here. I think it’s a Republican appointee trying to embarrass and put a mark on the Obama administration before it even starts.

    Do I need to take off my tinfoil hat?

  • CQ: It passes my smell test — especially after I read a couple Chicago Tribune articles. Illinois is famous for this kind of behavior by its governors…

  • Yes, I had that as my knee-jerk reaction to it. Bad CQ.

    From what I’m hearing on the recordings and statements circulated thus far it appears Obama is immune from any fallout. The governor said he wasn’t interested in what Obama wanted and all I took from that is Obama was making a suggestion for a replacement merely as a citizen of Illinois.

    Then again, I know the authorities and the press are far from wanting to report the truth on anything. The press reports what will sell advertising and the police leak only what they think will convict whomever the unfortunate soul du jour is on a particular day.

    I’ve had personal experience with the last part. Also see – Duke University LaCrosse rape case/Mike Nifong.
