Tonight will be my last Blago scandals reader for a while. If there is a big Blago news day, I will revive it. His likely indictment will warrant such a revival. Or a hairstyle change.
It was an historic day, TV newscasters told their viewers today. For the first time, an Illinois governor, our own Rod Blagojevich, was removed from office.
