arrested and cuffed at his house
How often do you hear about someone who commits a white collar crime being arrested at their house. Don't they usually turn themselves in with via their fancy lawyer?
The last IL gov was a republican
He's in jail now, too. The joke is that as soon as Illinois elects a governor, they should draw up the indictment. The blanks will soon be filled in.
And it should be noted that emocratic blogs have been predicting, and even calling for, this guys arrest.
Illinois Dems to Impeach Dem Governor
Obama Staff blew the Whistle on the Governor?

And it was the same...
USA who nabbed the LAST IL Governor. The guy is a pit bull who doesn't apparently care what party you belong to or how high up the food chain you are. He apparently doesn't tolerate much corruption.
