Jesse Jackson Jr., D-Ill., is the anonymous "Senate Candidate No. 5" whose emissaries Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich reportedly offered up to $1 million to name him to the U.S. Senate, federal law enforcement sources tell ABC News According to the FBI affidavit in the case, Blagojevich "stated he might be able to cut a deal with Senate Candidate 5 that provided Rod Blagojevich" with something "tangible up front."

Jim in Anchorage Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 I just found out I was candidate #6-and the only thing I offered was that no one would ever hear the name Jesse Jackson again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blzrul Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 There is no proof that ANY of the potential candidates were ever approached or anything solicited from them. This was stated by the attorney general's office. My own suspicion is that this dirtball was thinking he'd put the screws to Candidate #5's daddy ... I don't think Senior has that kind of money, but he's probably capable of raising it. Would he? I don't know. I would imagine that ambitious as Senior is, he's learned a thing or two from his past mistakes and would be smart enough not to fall forit. I'm sure we'll be hearing more. If the dirtball won't resign then I don't know that they can do much about his until he's convicted...maybe recall? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
