Under Fire, Burris Refuses to Resign

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2009/02/18/AR2009021802475.html

So apparently everything Rod Blagojevich touches turns to shit. He's like Midas, but far less lucrative. Now, is it just me, or is Roland Burris getting the short end of the stick here? I mean, to expect a guy who has to deal directly with Rod Blagojevich to remain squeeky clean seems impractical. Chances are that every person associated with the Chicago political machine has been forced to confront morally sticky issues at some point. Merely considering raising money for the former Governor does not, in my opinion, expell Burris' legitimacy. What else could he have done?
