The on-going political corruption investigations in Illinois continue:
Illinois’ governor Rod Blagojevich might be indicted — the evidence is there say the feds, the question is when will the axe drop, according to WBBM CBS Chicago.
Another investigation is looking into a grant that then Illinois state Sen. Barack Obama obtained for an Englewood botanic garden that was never built, reports the Chicago Sun-Times.
Corruption in Illinois politics is equal opportunity — a Republican governor fell under the weight of political corruption.
There’s something in Chicago’s and Illinois’ political water that causes many to stumble and fall. Maybe it’s all of those fixers and fundraisers and all of the favors that end up being owed to them as they help political leaders rise in power and office? A little boost here could mean a favor is owed years later when someone rises into a position where they have some pull.
As the investigations continue onward, one can only hope that whatever it is that causes so many political officials in Illinois’ system to go bad can be excised. One can also hope that the corruption can be contained and kept from spreading beyond Illinois and Northwest Indiana.
