Report: Emanuel Spoke to Blago About Senate Seat

Only a few days have passed and this scandal already appears to be reaching the highest advisers in Barack Obama's incoming administration.

Rahm Emanuel, Obama's chief of staff, did speak to indicted Governor Rod Blagojevich about filling the President-elect's Senate seat, reliable sources tell Fox Chicago. Emanuel supposedly even provided the scandal-ridden Governor with a list of candidates "acceptable" to Obama. The source claims that the timing of the talks would indicate that the FBI possesses recordings of them.

Of course, Team Obama is ignoring multiple requests for comment by Fox Chicago. That might also help explain why Emanuel refused to answer questions and hid behind his kids this evening.

Just how high is this scandal going to reach?
