Ever since Blago appointee Sen. Roland Burris (D-IL) admitted this week that he tried to raise money for the disgraced former governor in a
quid pro quo for his seat,
there have been calls for him to resign. Today both the
Washington Post and the
Chicago Tribune posted editorials demanding his resignation over having perjured himself when asked about Blago. You
knew there was something shady about Burris' appointment, didn't you? Illinois Democrats just keep giving.
