What State Is Capital of Political Scandal?
By You Decide  - FOXNews.com
The political upheaval taking place in New York now has shocked even hardened state residents, but the Empire State isn't the only state of scandal. In Illinois last year, there was Blago. Even farther back, in Florida, there was Foley. In Texas, there was Delay. And before that, throw a rock in the air in Louisiana and you were bound to hit a guilty politician.

New York 23%
Illinois 64%

Massachusetts isn't on that list - it should be, and damn near the top too.

I think Illinois ranks up there because the Blago scandal is still fresh and he keeps himself on TV one way or another.  Not to mention the whole Chicago politics thing.  Hopefully conservatives running this year will bring that up against the Dimrats.

Scandal involves behavior the public is "shocked" by and nobody is shocked by anything out of Massataxes.
