"Senate Democrats Plan to Accept Burris For Obama's Vacant Seat" reports that - despite all the hot air and condemnation of Governor Rod Blagojevich and his exercise of his right to appoint the person to succeed Barack Obama in the Senate, Roland Burris will be seated as the junior senator from Illinois.
This makes fools of the elitist Democrats who have turned up their nose at Blago for the pay-to-play while wooing Caroline Kennedy for Hillary Clinton's seat for her alleged fundraising skills. Barack Obama, Harry Reid, Lisa Madigan, Pat Quinn and and other holier-than-thou attitudes have been defeated by the rule of law and politics.

Senate officials in both parties, speaking on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak publicly for Senate members, said there is a growing expectation on Capitol Hill that the saga will end with Burris being seated.
