Former Rod Blagojevich administration chief operating officer John Filan says that Roland Burris contacted him in the fall about the possibility of Blago appointing him to Barack Obama's Senate seat.
After Blago's December arrest, Burris reached out to Filan again, asking that he put in a good word for him with then-Lt. Governor Patrick Quinn, who of course ended up succeeding his fellow Democrat as governor.
