Quincy Herald Whig http://qui.live.mediaspanonlinen.com/rss/ Quincy Herald Whig en-us Blagojevich to preside Wednesday in Senate that will try him on Jan. 26 By JOHN O'CONNORAP Political Writer SPRINGFIELD, Ill. -- The state Senate that will decide whether to throw impeached Gov. Rod Blagojevich out of office will be sworn in Wednesday by -- who else? -- impeached Gov. Rod Blagojevich. On Wednesday, Blagojevich was to preside over the swearing-in of the Illinois Senate, which will decide in a matter of weeks whether to throw the two-term Democrat out of office. The opening of a new legislative session is normally an upbeat occasion, but how the senators and the governor will respond this time is anyone’s guess."On one hand, it's a time of great celebration here in the Senate of a new beginning and new leadership," said Sen. Jeffrey Schoenberg, an Evanston Democrat. "On the other hand, there will be no denying the fact that the governor's participation in the proceedings will give it a character and flavor that many members would just as soon not experience." http://qui.live.mediaspanonline.com/new_story/i0559-BC-IL-IllinoisGovernor--2ndLd-Writethru-01-13-0800
