Lt. Gov. Quinn: Blagojevich Must "Level" With People
Chicago Tribune:
Lt. Gov. Pat Quinn demanded today that Gov. Rod Blagojevich immediately explain himself to the public following the Tribune's disclosure that the governor has been covertly taped by federal authorities investigating corruption in state government.
"I think the governor has a short period of time to come forward and level with the people of Illinois," Quinn said.
The Tribune broke the story today that Blagojevich has been covertly recorded and that one of his longtime confidants, lobbyist John Wyma, is cooperating with federal prosecutors in the sweeping probe.
