"Obama Administration: the most corrupt presidency in history!"

"Obama Administration:  the most corrupt presidency in history!"  Will that be the headline of some newspapers and some news magazines a year after Barack Obama takes the oath of office?  With the stench of Chicago and Illinois politics swirling around the president-elect, it looks as if this could very well be the case. 

The chief of staff to the thoroughly corrupt Democrat Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich  --  who the FBI is accusing of selling Obama's vacated Senate seat, to the highest bidder  --  resigned today.  Expected to sing like a canary to federal prosecutors to avoid 30 plus years in jail, the chief of staff, John Harris, will undoubtedly implicate his boss and just about anyone else higher than Governor Blagojevich to avoid as much jail time as he can. 

Will the "pay for play" scandal even implicate top officials on Obama's White House staff including his own chief of staff, Rahm Emanuel, the former Congressman who took Governor Blagojevich's seat in Congress when he ran for Governor.  Uncharacteristically, Emanuel  --  since the scandal broke earlier this week  --  is as quite as a church mouse.

The liberal mainstream media  --  and especially the mostly inept Chicago media  --   could have done much to prevent yet another scandal-ridden administration, as the Obama administration, even before it begins, seems destined to become.  

If the "Old Media" had done their job before or during the primary season and during the general election  --  even their ombudsmen, after the election, are blaming the mainstream media for dereliction of duty in so heavily favoring Obama  --  Hillary Clinton or John McCain would have become president, most likely the latter. 

Another song-bird, Tony Resko, indicted for various forms of corruption by an Illinois grand jury, a close associate of both Governor Blagojevich and Senator Obama (who actually got a sweetheart deal from Resko when he purchased his Chicago mansion) could very well implicate top Obama officials in all sorts of corruption even before the Obama administration gets off the ground. 

The Democrat Party's promises during the 2006 campaign to get rid of corruption and to clean up government are becoming increasingly hollow as scandal after scandal envelopes elected Democrat officials all across America including in the United States Congress.  Perhaps the voters in 2010 will be looking for a real change.
