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

April 4th, 2008 at 10:28am Andrea Zimmermann

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?
