Gov. Rod Blagojevich has apparently decided that the best defense is a televised offense. Rather than attend his impeachment proceedings by the Illinois Senate, which begin Monday, he has planned to embark on a media blitz. From the Chicago Sun Times:
Blagojevich is not going to participate in his defense because he says the rules are rigged against him. He will not be in Springfield for his trial; instead he will be doing nationally televised interviews.
The governor told NBC that the state Senate trial will be so unfair, he could bring in “15 angels and 20 saints led by Mother Theresa” to testify on his behalf and “it wouldn’t matter.”
No word on whether he’ll be traveling on horseback.
