Rod Blagojevich probably always thought that one day he would be the topic for discussion on the Sunday talk shows. Today, he is.
The auto industry bailout is the other main subject. Republican Senators should have to explain their strategy to destroy the auto industry in order to score what they saw as a political victory over working men and women. (The memo outlining that strategy was leaked.) The Obama team should read that memo and watch Ensign and Corker today. Those two, along with David Vitter, are the new GOP brain trust in the Senate. And, they have no interest in working together for the betterment of this country. None.
