Blagojevich Trial

Defense attorneys in the corruption trial of former Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevoich had wanted to call Jarrett to testify but the defense rested without calling a single witness, not even Blagojevich himself, sparing Democrats potentially embarrassing testimony and wrapping up the trial well in advance of Labor Day, the traditional kickoff of the fall campaign.
