Who wants to bet that the leadup to the next trial will feature either Rod Blagojevich, Patti Blagojevich or Deborah Mell in the porn movie "Hung Jury?"

Thanks.  Once I typed "Not guilty" and Command+C'd it, I didn't want to change it.

I highly doubt you'd ever see Deb getting involved with anything that could be described as "hung."

I'd be willing to bet that the Governor goes on an aggressive media blitz so as to taint the next potential pool of jurors.

Other than that, I predict nothing.
This is so bad, I'd root for the Orioles over this fucking team, but I can't. Because they're a fucking drug and you can't kick it and they'll never win anything and they'll always suck, but it'll always be sunny at Wrigley and there will be tits and ivy and an old scoreboard and fucking Chads.

QuoteUnlike some juries that report angry deliberations and even physical confrontations, jurors in the Blagojevich case said that while there was arguing, it was always respectful. "No yelling," Sarnello said. But he and Wlodek told the AP that after three weeks, it was clear one juror, a woman they wouldn't name, would not be swayed.

"She just didn't see it like we all did," Sarnello said. "At a certain point there was no changing. ... You can't make somebody see something they don't see.

A lone holdout.  Great?

Thanks.  Once I typed "Not guilty" and Command+C'd it, I didn't want to change it.

So you settled on 23 counts of wrong? Sounds dumb.

Don't worry, your lead in counts of wrong is safe as long as the Bulls thread exists.

Seems more promising for the retrial than the opposite, I guess.

QuoteAbout half of the 12 jurors in the case have spoken publicly since Tuesday's verdict, describing cordial but increasingly tense deliberations during which a lone holdout blocked a majority from a unanimous guilty vote on several counts, including Blagojevich's alleged attempt to benefit from the Senate seat.

Holdout?  http://www.myfoxchicago.com/dpp/news/metro/rod-blagojevich-guilty-juror-holdout-jo-ann-chiakulas-corruption-trial-20100818
QuoteFOX Chicago News reported that it is likely to be juror Jo Ann Chiakulas of Willowbrook, after a second-hand acquaintance said that she has been saying since early july that she would find Blagojevich not guilty...

Chiakulas is a retired director from the Illinois Department of Public Health. She was juror 106, college educated, is active in the Urban League and other politics, and listens to NPR. She reportedly did not see smoking gun in the case and that's why she didn't vote to convict.
