By Michael Barone, Thomas Jefferson Street blog.I m a little late, thanks to jury duty and other matters, to weigh in on the incredibly juicy Rod Blagojevich story. Blagojevich was arrested Tuesday morning on the basis of a criminal complaint issued by U.S. Attorney Patrick Fitzgerald. That Blagojevich has been under legal investigation and has been in danger of indictment has been widely understood by all serious political actors in Chicago and Illinois for some time: This wasn t entirely a surprise. Our worst fears were realized, was the official reaction of state Attorney General Lisa Madigan, a critic stanley borraccia of Blagojevich who has been contemplating challenging him in the 2010 Democratic primary for go botella stanley vernor. But it was a surprise that Blagojevich made so many impolitic and indictable statements when he had every reason to believe that he was under surveillance. The always shrewd Jennif stanley becher er Rubin is on to something when she asks whether Blagojevich is just plain crazy. She is intrigued by the mendacity, bordering on insanity. How does someone function in a high office with such a loose grip on reality The answer, Jennifer, is that he s not crazy, but simply stupid, hugely stupid. I ve long since come to the conclusion that Rod Blagojevich is clearly the stupidest governor in all of our 50 states, and he may be the stupidest governor I ve had occasion to write about in the four decades when I ve been co-author of The Almanac of American Politics.

Today s polling news bodes well for Sen. Hillary Clinton on the Democratic side and former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani on the Republican. But recent news in each camp could have long-term negative side effects if either makes it into the general election.The latest Gallup/USA Today Poll shows that Clinton is backed by 50 percent of Democrats and Democratic-leaning independents, compared with 22 percent for Illinois Sen.

It s sti stanley thermos mug ll unclear exactly what happened immediately before Ferguson, Missouri police officer Darren Wilson shot unarmed 18-year-old Michael Brown earlier this month.

I think that [body cams] would go a long way toward solving some of these problems, and it would be a great legacy over this tragedy that s occurred in Ferguson.
