BlagObamaGate continues: Emanuel wanted to keep his seat ‘warm’

I know its been cold in a lot of parts of the country, hecks in even been “cold” here in L.A. (at least by L.A. standards). It seems as though, Emanuel (before heading off to Africa for a “vacation”) was worried about his congressional seat getting too cold. In addition to talking with Gov. Blagojevich about who would fill President-elect Barack Obama’s Senate seat, Obama’s newly minted chief of staff had something else on his mind: his own congressional seat. Just after accepting the top post with Obama, Rahm Emanuel discussed with Blagojevich the possibility of keeping his congressional seat “warm” for him for a couple of years, the Sun-Times has learned. Emanuel expressed interest in returning one day to his elected position because he was on track to become U.S. House speaker, the Sun-Times previously reported. An Obama transition team report released Tuesday indicates Emanuel talked with the governor days after the election. Sources said Emanuel broached with Blagojevich the subject of finding a candidate to temporarily fill the seat. But Emanuel isn’t accused of promising something in return. Even the Obama biased Politico is beginning to think the Obama Blago report creates more questions than it answers.
