re: #150 Honorary Yooper

Three out of five. Big Jim Thompson has never been close to a jail cell, but he has defended George Ryan. Jim Edgar has not either, and stays out of politics after stepping down as governor at then end of his second term in 1999.

He was intereviewed also on news radio this morning. I think it was him and not the State Senator that said that impeachment was a “political process not a legal process.”

I thought that was interesting. Must research more.
