The big news of the day is the indictment and arrest of Illinois Gov. Rod J. Blagojevich on federal corruption charges. Among the allegations: That he tried to sell the senate seat being vacated by Barack Obama. He stands a chance of being the third of the last four Illinois governors to go to jail.
Maryland has certainly had its fair share of political corruption convictions over the years (Sprio Agnew, Marvin Mandel, Dale Anderson, the list goes on...) Does anything in the Free State stand up with the Land of Lincoln?
