The Reason Behind The Tears??

Jesse Jackson concerned about Bush's last days - Yahoo! News:

"Jackson refused to comment on whether his son, U.S. Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr. of Illinois, would be chosen to fill Obama's vacant Senate seat.
'That (decision) is not mine to make and I do not feel it's appropriate to comment on that,' Jackson said during a press conference after the service, which was attended by Baltimore Mayor Sheila Dixon."

Maybe that's why Jesse was crying at Obama's acceptance speech -- because he knew that the 'change' that is coming is blatant Cronyism as opposed to the semi-secret stuff the present administration did.

But then the replacement won't be appointed by the Mayor -- but by the Governor of Illinois ... wouldn't you love to see him shake things up by appointing either an independant or a republican?
