Good

I had a visceral reaction the other day against the move by the Illinois Attorney General to have Blogojevich removed by the state supremes. I just don’t like undemocratic end runs in these highly charged situations, no matter who is doing it.

The court apparently agreed. So now we let the system do its work, which requires that the Governor gets to tell his side of the story and present himself for judgment both by his fellow politicos in Springfield and a jury of his peers. Blagojevich should resign for the good of the state, of course, but he certainly has a right to fight this is he wants to. The state will survive.
