Blagojevich video game showboating costs Illinois $510,528.64

Last year, Illinois' embattled Democratic governor, Rod Blagojevich, received the national headlines he so desperately craves when he signed into law a ban of violent video games to minors.

To no one's surprise, the law was ruled unconstitutional. Worse for cash-starved Illinois, the judge in that case ordered the state to pay the legal fees for the plaintiffs, totaling $510,528.64.

Democratic governors offered nearly universal praise for President-elect Barack Obama after their meeting last week. The feeling must be mutual as Obama continues to tap the gubernatorial ranks to fill out his Cabinet.
