Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich has been charged with, among other things, trying to sell off the United States Senate seat formerly held by President-Elect Barack Obama. For those of you scoring at home, Senate positions which are vacated in cases like Obama's or Joe Biden's seat in Delaware are filled through appointment by the Governor of the State in which that Senate seat resides. No word has been given yet as to Blagojevich's asking price to represent Illinois in the Senate.
On another note, one Michael Ignatieff of Toronto has eschewed his Tsarist pedigree and Ivory Tower to settle for something cheaper.

I belive VP Elect Biden is the senior Seantor from Delaware not Vermont
