In Chambers
The judge will see you now. Step into Springfield Bureau Chief Aaron Chambers’ chambers for an insider’s view on Illinois politics and government. No, Chambers isn’t a real judge. At least not in the sense of wearing a robe, wielding a gavel and issuing orders. But like a good judge, Chambers tells it like it is.

Move Over Blago — There’s a New Elvis In Town

Add comment April 4th, 2008

On Thursday, President Bush compared French leader Nicolas Sarkozy to the King of rock ‘n’ roll, saying France’s president was the “latest incarnation of Elvis.”

But wait a second, I’m pretty sure another politician has already claimed this title — our very own Gov. Rod Blagojevich.

The Chicago Democrat seems to infuse Elvis into every facet of his life that he can. He has a bust of Elvis in his Springfield office, he frequently quotes his song lyrics in his speeches and his hair has an uncanny resemblence the King’s.

But I’ll let you decide — who makes a better Elvis incarnate?

Rod Blagojevich Elvis Nicolas Sarkozy
