I'm A Blagojevich...Get Me Out Of Here!

We suppose someone in the Blagojevich family has to earn some income. And it now looks like it will be Patti. If Blago's lawyer Sheldon Sorosky is to be believed, it appears as though Patti is going to accept an offer to be on the NBC show I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here. Speaking to reporters yesterday, Sorosky said of Patti and the show's offer, "It appears she's going to do it." While the entire cast hasn't been named for the June 1 premiere, we do know that the currently announced "celebrities" include Heidi Montag, Spencer Pratt, Sanjaya from American Idol, and lesser Baldwin Brother Stephen. Wow, we never thought we'd see the day where we're actually rooting for a member of the Blagojevich family to succeed.
