Better yet, who got to Feinstein?
Talkleft:
Sen. Diane Feinstein has decided that Roland Burris should be seated:
Sen. Dianne Feinstein rejected the reasoning that all of the chamber's Democrats, herself included, had cited in a letter last week — that corruption charges against Burris' patron, Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich, tainted his appointment. "Does the governor have the power, under law, to make the appointment? And the answer is yes," said Feinstein, chairwoman of the Senate Rules Committee, which judges the credentials of senators.
Funny, less than a month ago, Feinstein signed a letter saying the opposite:
Please understand that should you [Blagojevich] decide to ignore the request of the Senate Democratic Caucus and make an appointment we would be forced to exercise our Constitutional authority under Article I, Section 5, to determine whether such a person should be seated.

Diane Feinstein is getting alot of pressure from the GOP to disrupe the Obama Administration as much as possible. Diane's husband Richard Blum was given millions in favorbale contracts for her cooperation and now she's deep in debt to the GOP. Things are happening so fast she forgot she wrote the letter. She is more concered about the CIA illegal contracts being discovered. Diane will get busted with the investigations start and likely she will resign. Pelosi and Reid are hoping their deals don't come to light as both are sucking up to the Obama Administration. Remember one man in the Obama team knows all the dirty criminal secrets done by all the Law Makers his name is Rahm Emanuel. That's why the all had a fit when he as asked by Obama for his job.
