Former Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich was convicted in 17 of 20 counts, stemming from an attempt to sell the Senate seat formerly held by Barack Hussein Obama. Guilty of wire fraud, extortion, conspiracy, bribery, and a host of other charges, the audacious Democrat was said to be "stunned" that the jury would find him guilty.
Earlier in the day, the self-admitted Elvis Presley fan quoted a line from 'All Shook Up', as he made his way to the courthouse to hear the verdict. "My hands are shaky, and my knees are weak. I can't seem to stand on my own two feet".
The former Governor will be doing the 'Jailhouse Rock' soon.
