Burris Gives Himself An Out For Running In 2010

Burris must know that getting into the Senate next month has odds that are slim to none. Being picked by Blagojevich immediately tainted his chances for being admitted by his potential Democratic colleagues, who've already said that a Blagojevich appointee would be rejected. Now with that reality immediately in front of Burris, a face-saving actual race for the office in 2010 may be Roland's only chance to distance himself from Gov. Blagojevich and to utilize his experience as a dedicated public servant.
