G-Rod Hits The Interwebs

The internet got just a little more cluttered over the past few days as your former Governor and ours went online with GovernorRod.com (alas, hotrod.com and rockinrod.com was taken). Presumably created to help hype Rod's radio excursions as well as upcoming book publicity, the site is rife with double-entendres like "Have Rod at your next event!" and "Rod in the news."

In addition, it heralds the lack of accomplishment that is "He made history in August 2009 when he became the first former elected official still facing charges to be named host of his own radio show" as though that actually means something. Unfortunately, the site is lacking categories such as "Pay for Rod's legal bills!" and the "Lame Diversionary Excuse Soundboard," as well as the "Blame Pat Quinn Button." Hopefully we'll eventually see a "Buy Rod cigarettes to barter with cellmates!" section.

You may have noticed that all the links direct to The Publicity Agency, which is the PR group hired by Blago. This is the same PR group that represents Drew Peterson, so what are the chances of a D-Pete website, do you think? About as good as the chances of having Blago's next web presence being located here?
