Blagojevich Hits Just Keep On Coming

By Margaret Lyons in News on May 12, 2008 10:14PM

The New York Times is getting in on the Blagojevich Death Pool, kinda. According to a half-page article today....

++ Blago is "an ambitious chief executive .... who is left flailing in the wake of weeks of testimony."

++ He "has been so badly wounded by association with the case that he may not be able to recover, whatever the verdict for Mr. Rezko, according to interviews with academic experts and political commentators who are weighing the impact of testimony."

++ And he's "a governor under siege, keeping to himself for days at a time, refusing to answer questions about Mr. Rezko, and has fewer and fewer allies, even in his own party."

Ooooh, poor Sadgojevich. The world's tiniest violin is playing you a song. [NYT]
