Did Obama team have contact with Blago over Senate replacement?

Take a look at this passage from an AP article:

At a news conference Thursday, Obama said his office was assembling any information about possible contacts "between the transition office and the governor ' s office," and that he intended to release any such detail in the next few days.

"But what I ' m absolutely certain about is that our office had no involvement in any dealmaking (emphasis mine) around my Senate seat," Obama said. "That I ' m absolutely certain of."

It remained unclear whether anyone on Obama's team had been in contact with Blagojevich or his associates regarding the Senate seat.

What's clear according to the court documents is that Obama's camp wanted longtime Obama crony Valerie Jarrett to replace him.

Time for some transparency, Mr. President-elect.
