Urbana (AP) -- A visit to the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign on Tuesday saw a bit of bi-partisan good humor. Illinois Democratic Governor Ron Blagojevich, who is running for re-election to his second term in Novermber, was paying one of his rare downstate visits to academia.
"It was quite a relief to get that shirt. When I heard I finally was getting stuck for the day in Champaign County, I knew it was probably going to make another boring week in my administration drag out that much longer. I was really afraid the College Democrats were going to give me a shirt like that. I was relieved that it was only the College Republicans and the shirt was blue, not green. That could have been one of my most embarrassing moments yet and I thank the College Republicans for making me feel loved in Champaign County," the governor said as he boarded his helicopter to return to partying with his wealthy sycophants in Chicago. |

Hey, we'll work on getting your first name right and you work on fixing funding for higher education and the pension mess for state employees. Any guesses on who'll get it right first? |
