Coleman is a douche bag who is also currently under an FBI investigation for allegations of taking $$$$ from benefactors w/o reporting it on Senate personal disclosures form - a charge very similar to that which resulted in the conviction of Ted Stevens....another felon in the Republican ranks?

The really wild scenario would be for Blago to show up at the Senate on Tuesday, along with Burris. Under Senate rules, Blago could not be prevented from access to the Senate floor (all sitting governors have access) so that he could make the case, one-on-one with Senators, for his appointment.
Beyond that, if Burris wants to pursue it through the courts, I dont see how he can lose. The appointment was legal, by any measure.
