I THINK WE have all watched in varying degrees of disbelief and horror as the saga of Illinois governor Rod Blagojevich has unfolded over the last week. He of the uh, impressive, hair and apparent ethical deficiencies isn’t alone; his wife, Patti, has been pilloried by everyone from Barbara Walters onward, for her “potty mouth” (that, sorry to say, I have to forgive her for–I can’t throw that stone!) and for threatening revenge against her husband’s enemies (OK, that’s pretty bad–stand by your man and all, but maybe try to maintain a moral compass while you do, no?) But when the $%&% hit the fan last week, what did her sister do, bless her? Something any of us might when trouble hits our dear ones: She showed up with a bag of groceries for the beleaguered first family. Thick and thin, indeed. I think it will take more than a canned ham to bring holiday cheer to the Blagojevich’s, though….
