The Senate should confirm Burress, he has no corruption linked to him and has had a good reputation in Illinois for years and years. 

Speaking of which, the media has Blagojevich tried, convicted and put away already, what if he isn't even guilty?  Think of it, all that we have heard of is the tapes, but we have never actually heard the tapes, only have Fitzgerald's word that they even exist. 

No money was exchanged.

No racket was unarthed, and, at the initial press conference, Fitzgerald asked for more witnesses to step forward.

That tells me he has a pretty weak case.

I wouldn't be surprised if, despite all the media hoopla, Blagojevich gets off, and even keeps his job. In America, people tend to forget that you are still innocent till proven guilty.
