Today Illinois, Tomorrow the World....

I've just finished speaking to the BBC World Service's Newshour about the arrest of Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich on allegations that he tried to sell the Senate seat vacated by President-elect Barack Obama. Interestingly, the focus of Newshour was on US Attorney Patrick Fitzgerald, the high-profile prosecutor who put Daily Telegraph owner Conrad Black and Dick Cheney's right-hand man "Scooter" Libby behind bars.

The interview can now be heard on the Newshour website via the Wednesday 1300 GMT link. It's near the end of the programme, about 3/4 of the way along the audio bar.

The same Patrick Fitgerald who was criticized as being a partisan Democrat when he prosecuted Scooter Libby and Tubby Black?
