DISQUS

Happy New Year Rikyrah! I agree, Burris is more than qualified. He has also held state wide office. It was a good decision by Blago. Candidly, I think the Gov. made a great decision in this case. Why is your man Obama :-) and other black bloggers hating on the decision? Hmmm. We should take a U.S. Senator however we get him or her. The people of New York State will be taking a Kennedy, and the people of Delaware will be taking who knows who.

The bottom line is Blago did a rope a dope on those haters in Chicago and elsewhere. The fact is Blago is the governor of the state of Illinois and he has the sole responsibility for replacing the US Senate seat. He did what the law provides, just like the NY and Delaware Governors will do. I'm glad a qualified black man got the position, PERIOD.
