The Feds have lunched a criminal probe into a Quinn Administration anti-violence program centered on Chicago. They allege that that the program operated as a "political slush fund".

This is on top of his already low approval ratings and his recent controversial comments comparing Black Republicans to Jewish Nazi collaborators. Things can't really get worse for Quinn can they? Then again this is Illinois so will this really hurt him?

I don't know what it is about Illinois Democratic governors, but the feds sure love trying to get them on trumped up charges.

Clearly stating that you are trying to sell the President-elect's Senate seat during the course of an investigation is not a "trumped up charge".
