Ryan and Daley are obviously entrenched in these scandals. And Fitzgerald should take them down (and any other pols - republican or dem - who break their bond with the public). But I have honestly yet to see any allegation against blago that passes the sniff test. Alderman Mell's appointments-for-donations claim was retracted, and refuted, and the investigation has turned elsewhere. And the teacher pension corruption seems like an obvious attempt by Levine and his fellow republicans to put the focus on the governor when the investigation was proving to be nothing but bad news for numerous republicans. But, who knows, maybe they will find something eventually. I will withhold judgment until I see something real, though.</p>
