For pundits, comedians and Cable TV show hosts, Gov. Rod Blagojevich is the Energizer Bunny of comic material gift giving. His latest foray into the land of There-Is-No-Such-Thing-As-Bad-Publicity was yesterday at Chicago Comic Con in suburban Rosemont. During his appearance at the show--where he stood among grown men dressed as Superman and Batman while charging $80 if you wanted to be photographed with him and $50 if you merely wanted his autograph--Illinois’ second convicted-governor-in-a-row compared himself to a superhero.
Not being able to resist, this is what I posted on my Facebook Wall, giving my FB friends a chance to beat the punits, comedians and Cable TV show hosts to the punch.
Here was my commentary: Which Superhero would you liken Gov. Blagojevich to?
And this is how the thread was running at the time of this blog post:
