locogringo....Blago played the game just like hussein obama and the rest of the gangster dem politicians in Chicago...he must know to much so had to be put away..or he defied hussein obama by balking at obama's pick for his old senator seat. In any case it appears Blago did not follow the dem mob rules so bye bye Blago.?

Abramoff: My heart goes out to Blagojevich

Disgraced lobbyist Jack Abramoff believes that former Gov. Rod Blagojevich, who was convicted of extortion and trying to sell President Obama's old Senate seat, received too harsh a sentence for his crimes.

"Having served in prison for a long time, I agree [that the 14 year prison term was 'excessive']," Abramoff said yesterday on Morning Joe. "My heart goes out to [Blagojevich] regardless of what he did. I can't but feel pain for that because I've been through it."

Abramoff noted that Blagojevich "wont even be able to go to a minimum security facility. He'll have to go a low -- to what they call a low -- security facility, which includes all sorts of folks that he won't want to meet."
