Meet the junior senator from Blagojevich

Earlier this afternoon, Roland Burris, a Chicago Democrat, was sworn in as the "junior senator from Blagojevich."



Burris has given no indication that he won't run for a full Senate term next year. Which means voters, who have not been kind to Burris in the last two decades, will have their say if they want a "senator from Blagojevich" representing them in Washington.
