Wilkerson Vowes to Push On



When does this cease to become a political career and, instead, become an SNL skit? She doesn't know when to quit. You've lost, Dianne, have some decency and suspend your tilting at windmills.
Just then they came in sight of thirty or forty windmills that rise from that plain. And no sooner did Don Quixote see them that he said to his squire, "Fortune is guiding our affairs better than we ourselves could have wished. Do you see over yonder, friend Sancho, thirty or forty hulking giants? I intend to do battle with them and slay them. With their spoils we shall begin to be rich for this is a righteous war and the removal of so foul a brood from off the face of the earth is a service God will bless."
The Globe has her statement.

My favorite part?
"Not only does this represent the biggest challenge in my personal and political life, but it will test to the limit the notion of innocent until proven guilty," Wilkerson said in the statement. "While there is great curiosity about the particulars of my case I am not at liberty to discuss them for obvious reasons. For those of you who must be thinking 'there has to be more to this story,' of course there is. But it is not a story that I am able or willing to lay out in the press."
I'm innocent, all this evidence is damning, but don't worry, I have answers. I just need to wait until after the election to tell them to you. Riiight...

Update: Wilkerson, and the picture of she stuffing money in her bra, made CNN, according to a friend who was just watching it. She was called a "rogue official." A WCVB is currently linked to CNN.com.

When will Sall and the gang be leaving? Lots of FBI running around that building.
