The alleged (and I use that term loosely) corruption charges facing Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich reminded me that Illinois politics is old school. However, in the new era, old school politicians often end up in prison. Since 1972, three Illinois governors, Otto Kerner, Jr. (D), Daniel Walker (D), and George Ryan (R) have ended up in prison all for some form of corruption. I hope Governor Ryan is ready for a roommate...
