Blagojevich Considered Resignation, Despite Saying Otherwise: Father-In-Law

Contrary to public statements he's made, Rod Blagojevich contemplated resigning as governor shortly before the Illinois Senate voted to boot him from office.

"He wanted to step aside, but he didn't reach out to anybody" in state government, Blagojevich's estranged father-in-law, Ald. Dick Mell (33rd), told the Chicago Sun-Times today in his first public comments since Blagojevich's impeachment conviction.
