Exactly one year ago today, Rod Blagojevich began a 14-year prison sentence for official corruption; but the former governor is still counting on his lawyers to get his conviction overturned. 
A jury said Blagojevich tried to sell a U.S. Senate appointment for personal gain; he maintains he wanted the State of Illinois to benefit from anything he received in return for the appointment.
Blagojevich makes daily phone calls to his wife and daughters, and they visit him about once every two months.

Kinda reminds me of Jerry Lundegaard from the old movie "Fargo". I hope his small soul rots in there and his daughters grow to learn what a piece of crap he really is!

I can't wait till he gets released after his appeal. He didn't do anything wrong. The State didn't prove their case. They couldn't like $1 to Blagojevich. Free ROD!
