JJJ says he’d be humbled to be appointed Senator. From this embarrassing spectacle he has created, I’d say that’s damn near impossible.

Progress Illinois catches Chris Mathews blabbering about Jackson and Chuck Todd nails the situation:

Rich makes the point that Todd is one of the best DC correspondents alive and frankly that may be underestimating him.  The Hotline is probably the best training for a pundit.  Maybe Mecurio is next (he’s still not as good as Todd though).

At this point, Blagojevich might appoint a Jones ally just to piss off JJJ.

Thus the Kwame Tsunami!

(I highly doubt it will be Kwame Raoul, but I love using the nickname).
