Mark Brown of the Chicago Sun-Times makes a case for insanity, saying because Blagojevich came up through the Chicago power structure, he doesn't know right from wrong.
"Nobody ever taught him the proper way to govern. All his role models were crooks," Brown wrote.

"It's when they're (Chicago politicians) quiet and reasonable that you've got to worry," Kass concluded.
