In the last day of his impeachment trial before the Illinois State Senate, Gov. Rod Blagojevich made in impassioned plea to keep his job as the Chief Executive of Illinois, saying that he cannot apologize to them because he has not done anything wrong. With tones consistent with old-time gangster movies, Blago’s demeanor and his body language show that those politicos throughout Chicago, Illinois, and probably has them on edge in the halls of Washington DC.

     After a vote of 59-0, the Governor was removed from office, and in a separate vote, the State Senate voted to bar Blagojevich from holding public office in Illinois ever again. Immediately thereafter, Lt. Gov. Pat Quinn was sworn in as the Governor in his office, and then again in a ceremonial swearing in.

     As the locks are changed on the doors of the Governor’s office, the press is waiting for the former Governor to address the gathered group.
