Self-Denial

Roland Burris doesn't understand why people don't acknowledge that he's junior senator from the State of Illinois, after his appointment by the hirsute and embattled Gov. Rod Blagojevich.

"I didn't expect all this. I expected my qualifications, my commitment to the people of Illinois, that that would be the best choice the governor could make because I could hit the ground running. I could go in and begin to just learn the procedures and then be able to go to work with the people of Illinois."

If he really didn't anticipate the uproar and dispute, then perhaps he's not the best choice for Senator...

Now the rest of the country gets to find out what we already know here in Illinois. I think he's a poor choice for senator and a pathetic person to follow Mr. Obama.
