“Supreme Court lets Blagojevich conviction stand”

Bob Barnes for WaPo:

The Supreme Court on Monday said it would not review the conviction of former Illinois governor Rod Blagojevich on corruption charges.

The justices without comment let stand an appeals court ruling that said Blagojevich (D) illegally sought money in exchange for filling the Senate seat left vacant when President Obama was elected.

If I were Gov. McDonnell, I would not view this cert. denial favorably.
