Shocking that they arrested him at all. Isn't this just business as usual in Illinois? Did he step on the heels of another power Democrat or is that state actually getting cleaned up a bit?
My view as well. I’m probably pessimistic about these things, but I’m sure he ran out of favor and is now hung to dry, a ‘trade’ if you will.
