Just Curious - Has Roland Burris Ever Discussed How The Conversation Went ......

[global1]

between him and Blago?

Did Blago call Burris and ask him if he wanted the job?

Did Blago just call and say - I'm appointing you?

Did Burris ask Blago any questions about this whole matter? Didn't Burris think this appointment would be under a cloud?

Did Burris consult with anyone before he accepted?

After he accepted - what meetings did he have with Blago to coordinate their statements that they made when Blago announced this? Did they discuss the strategy as to how this might play out?

How did Bobby Rush get pulled into the fray?

Did Blago ask Rush to get involved or did Burris ask Rush to get involved? (as you recall Rush was at the presser where Blago announced this appointment and kind of shaped it as a racial matter)

I'm just curious as to how this all came about.

After all - Burris did run against Blago and they were opponents.

So how - all of a sudden did they come to this agreement? I don't believe I've ever read anything about how this all transpired.
