Why is Blagojevich so unpopular? I like him.
I really have no specific information on that, but certainly Illinois, like all of the middle west, is in atrocious shape economically.
I think a lot of governerors get blamed for that - in Missouri the extreme rightwinger Blunt is terribly unpopular, but then again so was his predecessor the moderate Holden. If Illinois is anything like Missouri it is just a state full of people who are hard to please because their standard of living keeps declining.
Ah I see. It is the same thing that happend to Granholm except he got hit harder than her and the republicans seemed to have found a credible candidate in Illinois. They havent in michigan.
