Speaking of the IL GOP

The Illinois Republican Party is demanding answers from Attorney General Lisa Madigan and House Speaker Michael Madigan.

GOP spokesman Lance Trover says serious questions have been raised after The Associated Press reported former Gov. Rod Blagojevich had considered Lisa Madigan for President Barack Obama’s former U.S. Senate seat.

Trover says voters need to know of any involvement by either Madigan in the Blagojevich corruption allegations.

A possible date for Blago's trial:

Rod Blagojevich’s trial will likely happen soon after the 2010 primary and before the general election, which won’t be fun for Democrats…
U.S. District Judge James B. Zagel told attorneys he wants the trial to get under way between April and June 2010 and would prefer it closer to April.
