J³ is d.o.n.e.

I always liked Jesse Jackson, jr, but this whole senatorial thing is going to undo his future aspirations.. The fact that his own brother was involved in that fundraiser dinner, and that "someone" met, on his behalf, with Blago is not going to help him at all..

People in-the-know, know how these things are "done".. but when it's all made public, and twisted and turned and peered into, it smells..and the stink of corruption never really goes away, even on the clothing of those standing nearby, but not directly involved..

On politics, nothing happens in a vacuum..

J³ will probably remain in the house, but he will never be senator..

2. And I Think It Couldn't Have Happened To a Nicer Guy

But those tears also have to be analyzed. They have to be looked at very, very carefully in light of Katrina, in light of other things that Mrs. Clinton did not cry for, particularly as we head to South Carolina where 45% of African-Americans who participate in the Democratic contest, and they see real hope in Barack Obama.

We saw something very clever in the last week of this campaign coming out of Iowa, going into New Hampshire, we saw a sensitivity factor. Something that Mrs. Clinton has not been able to do with voters that she tried in New Hampshire.

Not in response to voters -- not in response to Katrina, not in response to other issues that have devastated the American people, the war in Iraq, we saw tears in response to her appearance. So her appearance brought her to tears, but not hurricane Katrina.

Not saying that to fight the primaries or anything, just call attention to poetic justice. Jackson obviously *is* that cynical and if you're right, I think he's getting what he deserves.

But, you may very well be right.

BTW, how do you type a superscript? the J cubed thing?
