3. Rule # 1 do what your lawyer tells you to do
This "thing" he is doing is just weird.

His "law breaking" was about saving the Cubs? :rofl:

7. I think Rachel might too, and maybe even me, a little, the thing is - he is doing what has been done
for ages in politics, seeking "something" for an action. He got caught... I don't believe him saying he didn't want something, but he does admit, with Rachel, that something be done to "don't forget Illinois" and something be done about "health care", for the senate seat being given to who the Obama Adm. would like it to go to... I think he's screwed. But I do understand where he's coming from, even if he's 'screwn', and a bit screwy in the head - he's certainly different.

8. A fundraiser, as far as I've heard
Just like they all do. I can't figure out what he's done, except be more blatant about it - and maybe cross Daly.

14. I'm almost rooting for the fucker.
It takes a special kind of grifter to keep on getting up in front of the cameras and deny reality with a smile on his face and a skip in his step. To compare himself to Rosa Parks, without even displaying a hint of irony. He is like a superhero who's power is the inability to feel shame. It's just amazing to watch.

The only person I have ever met who had that ability was a certain con artist who would approach people on the street with wild sob stories, like how he was a former pro basketball player whose car broke down on the way to a charity event for kids with leukemia, and he needed $50 to save the children, etc. When he would approach me again (not remembering me) a few weeks later, dressed as a sailor on leave or a lost cooking student, I would call him on it, and he wouldn't even blink. He would just be like "Hey man, how're you doing! Good to see you again! Can I still have some money?"

15. It's the old " Who ya gona believe, me or your lying eyes?" game.
And most people will freeze in doubt.

Notice the trick to Blago is that he keeps dancing, keeps talking, never shuts up.
Like a verbal blast of octopus ink.

16. I think he might have a very expensive cocaine habit and has fried his brain. It would also explain
his massive debt.

18. I think he is truly mentally ill. He has delusions of grandeur.
His schemes are just unbelievable. He acts like a bipolar person in a manic phase.
