Politics as usual

By Creature

Politico:

National Republican Committee Chairman Mike Duncan called on President-elect Barack Obama Wednesday to disclose any communication he has had with Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich, who was arrested Tuesday for allegedly attempting to sell Obama’s Senate seat.

"President-elect Barack Obama’s carefully parsed and vague statements regarding his own contact and that of his team with Governor Rod Blagojevich are unacceptable," Duncan said in a statement.

This is why playing nice and embracing bipartisanship, while noble in theory, is usually a waste of time in practice.
