11 days of deliberating have gone by and still nothing? What kind of morons are on this jury? This should have taken them 11 minutes.
Part of the difficulty is that the alleged corruption was not as straightforward as someone walking into Blagojevich's office and plopping bags of cash bribes on his desk.
Instead, the then-governor is heard on the FBI wiretaps - the core of the government's case - talking, sometimes circuitously, about using gubernatorial decisions for personal gain.
Sorry, I'm not buying this. I think Blago has some jury influence going on. There's something really suspicious going on. The government was taping him for a reason. They had enough information that showed something corrupt was going on. They have hours and hours of him taking about all sorts of different deals AND, referring to the power of appointing someone to the Senate seat as "f#cking golden," that he's not giving it up for "nothing." Give me a break. He's guilty.
