      <![CDATA[Candidate 1, the guy that Blago is convinced Obama wants and is frustrated that he won't pay for, is definitely Jarrett.
    
    Candidate 2, the one Blago floats as a dummy leak to try and send Obama a message, is Lisa Madigan.
    
    Candidate 5 is the big one, obviously, since, given the content of the message, he'll be swinging from the rafters pretty soon; I doubt it's Emil Jones, because Blago seems to think that Obama doesn't want #5 in the Senate, and I cannot see why Obama would be vociferously against Jones, since Jones was his mentor in the State Senate.

      <![CDATA[Senate Canidate 1(the SEIU connection) is Valerie Jarret.  The indictment says "1" is a woman.
    
    Senate Candidate 5 is a male.  In all likelyhood that is Representative Jesse Jackson Jr.  It has to be someone that could "raise $500,000", is a male, and would be "elevated" from their current position.
    
    Other potentials are State Senator Emil Jones and Representative Danny Davis.  However, the $500,000 is money raised FOR Blagojevich.  That would be a struggle for Davis or Jones, but not for Jackson Jr.

      <![CDATA[The first thing the Illinois Representative have to do is change the state song to 'DING DONG THE WITCH IS DEAD".
    
    Da Boss and Steve Urkle are next.  It's nice to see a US Attorney that has manly ornaments and not afraid to stand up for what is right for ALL the people.

      <![CDATA[It should be clear that Jesse Jr. was the unnamed senate candidate that Blago was trying to extort something out of SEIU for.  SEIU bankrolled Sandi's alderman race, so Blago wanted to hit up SEIU on behalf of Jr.
