Barack Obama released the information on his contacts with Illinois governor Rod Blagojevich, liek he said he would as soon as he was allowed to by the U.S. Attorney's office, and sure enough, there was no improper behavior. So this should settle it - except as far as Fox News is concerned.
For the time being, Illinois won't have an additional senator, but then neither, apparently, will Minnesota. They still can't call the Senate election there for Al Franken or Norm Coleman, and it won't be settled until some time after the holidays.
Meanwhile, I was pleased to see Obama name California congresswoman Hilda Solis as his Secretary of Labor, as she has a strong, lengthy record of standing up for workers' rights. :-)
