The verdict is in: Illinois Governor ROD BLAGOJEVICH is brazen. here's Blago getting called "brazen" on MSNBC, CNN, regular NBC, and even Fox (where he is guilty of "a brazen, brazen act"). Why can't anyone call him on the audacity of his crimes? Whatever happened to plain old "shameless"? All Obama (via Robert Gibbs) will say on the matter is that "it is difficult for the governor to effectively do his job and serve the people of Illinois." [Video: intern Josh Rachford]
