How much longer will Roland Burris hang on? Gov. Pat Quinn has just called for him to resign, saying he'd use his powers as governor to appoint somebody to fill the seat temporarily until a special election can take place. This raises the prospect of Illinois having four different people hold the same Senate seat within a matter of months, and it also at least leaves a theoretical opening for a Republican, should the Democrats nominate another troubled candidate.

Is this Blagojevich 2.0? Senator Roland Burris deliberately misled us in regard to his involvement with Blagojevich and like Blagojevich refused to acknowledge what he had done wrong when he was caught.
Why did both Blagojevich and Burris think that they could get away with their deceptions and lies? Why the brazen effort to try and retain their positions of power?
What does this do to the confidence of voters in the political system and the government to see such open and unashamed attempts to gain personal advantage from public service?
