Should Roland Burris be the newest Senator from Illinois?

Posted by: ST on February 17, 2009 at 12:49 pm

I’ve never believed he should, because I was outraged at the audacity of Gov. Blago to appoint someone in the middle of the scandal he created for himself, but this news regarding the closer-than-originally-admitted association between Burris and Blago seals the deal for me even more.

Burris must go.

I suppose this makes me a “racist,” Congressman Rush?

    I think this is another example of why the antique gubernatorial appointment rule should be replaced by special elections.

    I could not agree more—-Burris has to go!

    They were talking about special elections before the appointment–that’s why Blagojevich shoved it through so fast.
