My friend said that he saw it at 15%. That was obviously taken before today's story.

Think he's down to 5%? Move over, Taft?

5% is entirely plausible.

And sadly, he might still get 35% in a general election.

I don't think he has a chance at ever getting to a General election again. That being said, Illinois and especially Illinois Democrats have disappointed some of us in the past...

Oh I don't think he'll ever get to another election either. Just saying he would probably get something like that share of the vote IF it ever came to that.

Alan Keyes might actually be able to beat him.

In an ideal world, it would be 100%

actually, I believe Rasmussen had 15%...they asked that question when they asked about Obama's replacement, I think.

Yeah, that sounds more likely. I guess that's where my friend heard the 15% from.

Let's ask Rod why he is so unpopular...

Blagojevich said in October 2008 that if he were running for re-election this year, he would win, and the economy, not his federal investigations, had caused his unpopularity.[4]

You know Phil, I don't remember your precious Jesus being that popular at first.

But, in the end, history looked on him favorably. And if anyone, in our modern age, is a tragic, Jesusesque figure, that man is Rod Blagojevich.
