Roland Burris, Bobby Rush, It's important that the Senate have at least one African-American member

Not so fast, say Senate Democrats who put out a statement: "Anyone appointed by Governor Blagojevich cannot be an effective representative of the people of Illinois and, as we have said will not be seated by the Democratic Caucus." Secretary of State Jesse White says he won't certify any Blagojevich appointee. "I'm not a rubber stamp. I'm also the keeper of the seal of the state. You have to have to have two signatures, that of the governor and yours truly. My position is I'm not going to sign," said White. "Rod Blagojevich has unclean hands. He should not be able to make any appointment whatsoever. He should be impeached. Convicted in Illinois Senate and removed from office," said Lt. Gov. Pat Quinn, (D) Illinois.
