Following Burris' testimony this afternoon (more on that later), the 21 members of the House special investigative committee recommended that Gov. Blagojevich be impeached. From the Tribune:
"This is a very sad day in the state of Illinois," said Rep. Barbara Flynn Currie, the Chicago Democrat who chaired the impeachment panel, calling Blagojevich "an individual who is not fit to be the governor of the state of Illinois."
Immediately after adjourning the committee, Currie could be heard letting out a relieved: "Phew!"
The House will likely vote on the matter tomorrow, sending it to the Senate for a trial.
