Resign Already

The news that there are wiretaps revealing Roland Burris talked with former Governor Rod Blagojevich's brother about how to raise money for Rod without it looking like he was buying his way into the vacant Illinois Senate seat doesn't surprise me.

If anything, it strengthens my perception of Roland Burris as a insignificant little man who desperately wanted to be someone special and important.

If not already there, Burris is on his way to becoming as large of a joke in Illinois as Rod Blagojevich. What could clinch it is if Burris decides to move ahead with a re-election campaign.
