Governor Custer

Mother Teresa rose from the grave and batted at Blago on Leno last night. The Sun Times chooses Custer as Blago's persona of the day, as he makes his last stand on the Illinois Senate floor. Mark Brown offers him a ride after he's impeached, maybe with a stop at the rarely-used Governor's mansion for a few tchotchkes of office. Or, WLS has a listener with a white Bronco and a ladder who has volunteered to drive the governor back and grab a few of the infamous tollway signs on the way. Better yet, he could be chauffered by one of his former political bedfellows. Advocates for the mentally ill are offended--calling the governor crazy or cuckoo demeans them. On the Tribune website, reader suggestions on what he should say today--'Bleep you!'. A pro-Blago demonstrator outside his home, whom Patti gently asks to go home:

Theresa Gajdos, 81, carried a sign that on one side read "All Mothers Should Thank Governor" and, on the flip side, "If Nixon Could Be Pardoned So Can Be Pardoned Blagojevich Too."

Lt. Governor Pat Quinn says 'I will be ready'--yeah, right. And state Sen. Susan Garrett, D-Lake Forest:

Asked whether she is looking for an apology to voters from a governor once elected on a promise to end "business as usual" in Springfield, Sen. Susan Garrett (D-Lake Forest) said she craves something beyond anything Blagojevich can say today. "I would like to, if I had my choice, look him in the eye and just ask him, 'What went wrong? What happened?'"

Really? You don't know?

UPDATE: Legal Insurrection on the flawed impeachment process. Pat Hickey--leave the Blago tollway signs up!
