News: Rod Blagojevich, Sushi, Cam Gigandet, Latisse, Daniel O’Donnell

road.jpg Illinois Governor Blagojevich tries to fill Obama’s Senate seat: “U.S. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nevada) said in a statement this afternoon that the Senate will not seat anyone Gov. Rod Blagojevich chooses to fill Illinois’ vacant Senate post, amid word that the governor is set to name former Illinois Attorney General Roland Burris. The statement also is signed by U.S. Sen. Dick Durbin of Illinois, who has repeatedly urged Blagojevich not to name a replacement for the seat vacated by President-elect Barack Obama.”

I think those people are really good at what they do. Rachel Maddow is an incredible talent — she’s funny, and smart, obviously well researched on subjects. I’m just not interested as a viewer in listening to anchors’ opinions. It seems like there’s an awful lot of yelling, and this year yelling’s been replaced by sarcasm and snark- iness.”

road.jpg NY Assemblyman Daniel O’Donnell interviews with David Paterson for Clinton Senate seat: ” To say Mr. O’Donnell, known for his active support of gay rights issues, including same-sex marriage, was overly optimistic about his chances would be a stretch. He put his odds of getting the seat at about one in 10, or ‘about the same as the population of gay people in the world.’ But Mr. O’Donnell did offer that he believes the governor has yet to settle on a final choice.”

The paper quotes an unnamed ‘source close to McCartney’ as saying: ‘Paul had a great time at the gig. He loves their music and their great attitude. He was as pleased to meet them as they were to meet him but they were gobsmacked when he said he’d love to do something with them music-wise.'”
