Governor What Would Lou Do?

Blago--too embarrassing even for Cubs fans. Rick Morrissey, Tribune:

At a rally for the Cubs at Daley Plaza before the playoffs last season, Blagojevich told the crowd that, while dealing with difficult issues, he often thought of Piniella.

"When you're the executive, you've got to make decisions and you've got to go through the ups and the downs," he said. "… Sometimes when I'm arguing with the legislature, I feel like Lou Piniella arguing with the umpires. Some of the times I have to make decisions as governor, I ask myself, 'What would Lou do?' Then I make some decision."

It could be worse. But then I'm a Sox fan.
