Impeachment Politics... The New Template

Following in the footsteps of Bill Clinton, the embattled Illinois Governor has reached out the Black community for support during his impeachment. When Clinton was in trouble, it was the African American community that first defended what had (up into that point) been considered indefensible. Now Gov. Blagojevich hopes to generate the same reaction by defying the Democratic Party and refusing to resign, and going as far as making a Senate appointment in spite of promises by his party not to seat whoever he picks. Blgojevich hopes to shame the Democrats into reversing that pledge, however, by selecting a black man, Roland Burris, to fill Obama's Senate seat. Sure enough, a former Black Panther (now Illinois Congressman) has jumped to his defense, saying blacks deserve to have at least one black Senator of their own, and daring any Democratic Senators to deny Burris the seat. On the other hand, the National Democratic party wants the scandal to go away, as not to create their own version of "culture of corruption", which they ran against Republicans so successfully in previous election cycles. At this rate, the scandal could last into the next election! See Chick's BUSTED!
