A push to recall Gov. Rod Blagojevich picked up steam Thursday. As CBS 2 Political Editor Mike Flannery reports, some Democrats are supporting the recall amendment.And you might say an insanely cheerful Blagojevich responds:
Lt. Gov. Pat Quinn on Thursday endorsed the idea of for the first time giving Illinois voters the ability to recall public officials. He did not necessarily endorse the specific recall of Blagojevich, but there was another Democrat who did. But State Rep. Jack Franks during a news conference did just that.
"I take that as a very good sign," Blagojevich said. "And I'm in good company. Franklin Roosevelt, who gave us Social Security, who led America out of the Great Depression, who led America – victoriously – through World War II, received more than 1,000 negative editorials. When you compare me to Franklin Roosevelt, I think they're going easy on me."Governor Delusional.
